POST PLUS IS COMING, WHETHER YOU WANT IT OR NOT!

Despite the fancy survey, changes to the UI and TOS reveal we’re getting the service in the future whether we want it or not. Obviously, Post+ is a terrible idea that is trying to bank revenue on user content. Unlike patreon or onlyfans, tumblr’s primary focus is on FAN content. The legality of this is NOT in the users favor and as the new tumblr TOS states, said users will be entirely liable for whatever legal matters arise.

SO WHAT ARE WE DOING?

Besides filling out the survey, it’s time to show tumblr we mean business and show our displeasure by hitting them where it hurts.

Ad revenue.

We’re proposing a 24 hour log off as phase one of this protest.

HD Wireless Fest Announcement:

HD Wireless Fest has decided to support this 24hr tumblr boycott as a protest against the Post+ service. 

As such there will be no tumblr posts from us on 6th August (between the times specified above). We will still post the fest work on AO3, but we will delay the tumblr post until the protest is over. 

Please keep an eye on our AO3 page and/or Drarry discord for details of the work posted, and be sure to shower the creator with love! 

You can count us in!

We’re in the middle of a posting week for our latest anthology, Seven Shades of Virtue, but that won’t deter us from supporting this 24hr Tumblr boycott as a protest against the Post+ service.

As such, there will be no Tumblr posts from us on 6th August (between the times specified above). We will still post the current anthology according to schedule on AO3 and FFN, but we will delay the Tumblr post until the protest is over.
