Apparently lots of people are moving here from tumblr now. So, hello Dreamwidth! It's looking very 2009 in here :)
If tumblr does end up dying I think I'll miss the reblog structure — everything I've seen floated as a tumblr alternative seems to instead have the more classic blog-style split between Posts and Comments, which I think encourages a slightly different mode of interaction. It's not as naturally set up for this kind of interaction, for example.
Speaking of tumblr alternatives, I sincerely doubt Pillowfort's going to become the Next Big Thing, because they seem not very good at making their site able to deal with high traffic. But I do kinda hope they'll defy my expectations, because I've managed to snag my preferred three-letter username, and getting to have a three-letter username on a popular platform would be so cool you guys
