Tumblr: Until 2018 the Facebook alternative for porn
Männer und Frauen, die wie auf Facebook, Instagram, Pinterst und TikTok gerne Pornovideos und Sexbilder posten, liken, sharen und rebloggen wollten, stießen bis zum Dezember 2018 zwangsläufig auf die Social Media Plattform Tumblr.
Men and women who liked to post, like, share and reblog porn videos and sex pictures on Facebook, Instagram, Pinterst and TikTok inevitably stumbled upon the social media platform Tumblr until December 2018.
Tumblr was an almost inexhaustible source for special fetishes. There were thousands and thousands of blogs from private people all over the world.
Besides classic porn, could fans of facials, creampies, sperm games, BDSM in all variants, wifesharing, cuckolding, armpit hair, pussy hair, BBC and many other things could find millions of animated GIFs, MP4 videos and JPG photos.
Especially popular were the cuckold captions pictures, which were decorated with kinky sayings and hot and dirty texts.
In this review we would like to tell you what is behind the strange name, how to register and what content awaits you. Please also share your experiences and opinions about Tumblr if you know the platform.
The history of Tumblr
Tumblr was founded in 2007 by David Karp and Marco Arment in New York. Karp dropped out of high school at 15 and founded Tumblr at the age of 20. The so-called microblogging platform experienced a meteoric rise despite Facebook and Twitter. Just 3 years after the platform was founded, Tumblr reached 20 million users and was considered number three in the world of social networks.
The online service is positioned between a traditional blog like WordPress and Twitter. It was possible for people with little computer skills to set up their own blog and run it successfully with just a few clicks. With over 450 million porn blogs, Tumblr was one of the largest pornographic networks in the world!
Unfortunately, Tumblr was bought by Yahoo in May 2013. Yahoo wanted to target users between 18 — 24 years old and make the graying Yahoo search engine popular again.
In December 2018, to the shock of the community, all pornographic blogs were disabled or extremely restricted without prior notice. Yahoo experienced an incredible but unsuccessful shit-storm.
Platforms like mewe.com and bdsmlr.com sensed a market opportunity and offered very convenient interfaces for angry blog operators to move blogs.
In August 2019, Tumblr was resold to the operator “Automattic” of the blog network wordpress.com. The hope that the that the porn block was lifted again was in vain.
Although the blogging platform is still alive today, neither YAHOO nor Automattic have made anything of it. The number of visitors has decreased by more than 3/4. The number of unreported cases is certainly much higher.
From a porn perspective, Tumblr is and will remain dead. There are currently still hard Tumblr fans who live with the fragments and restrictions and post new content. But it’s really no fun there anymore.
Simple and intuitive signup
If you want to become a member of the Tumblr community, only a few clicks are required. However, we recommend you to create a separate porn email address and not to use your private mail address. Gmail has worked very well for this.
Go to tumblr.com and click on the “Register” button. A simple form will open where you enter your email address, your desired password and your desired username/blogname. Afterwards you will be asked for your age and you have to accept the privacy and cookie policy. That’s it….
You are automatically logged in and are supposed to select your interest on a “What’re you into?” page. Since you are only interested in porn, you click the “Skip” button.
The interface: simple, tidy and intuitive
On https://www.tumblr.com/dashboard you will always find your dashboard. The interface looks very tidy in its dark blue color. Since you haven’t subscribed to any blogs yet, random posts are shown to you first.
The range of functions is comparable to Facebook. You can like, share and comment on posts. If you have activated your own public blog, you can also reblog other people’s posts and write your own blog posts.
The search function on the top left no longer works for sex terms. You have to access Tumblr blogs through direct links. With a little luck, Google will help you with terms like “tumblr wifesharing”. For example, you can find the URL https://wifehasaboyfriend.tumblr.com/ or https://dirkthecuckold.tumblr.com/. Keep in mind, however, that Tumblr continues to die and more and more blogs are disappearing from Google.
In the top right navigation bar, click the “Follow” and “Accept Messages” button. Then when you go to your dashboard, you’ll see the latest posts from your subscribed blogs.
One peculiarity of censored porn blogs is that you will land on a flickering page with the text “This blog may contain questionable media”. Click on the “Go to Dashboard” link. You then land on the dashboard and on the right side you see the same message again in a window. Then click on the button “View this blog”.
With a little effort, you will find more linked blogs, and you can go from sex blog to sex blog. You have to have a strong will to endure this ordeal. But it is worth it. You can still find a few blogs that are actively run and have awesome content.
For starters, we recommend the following blogs:
- https://thecuckoldconsultant.tumblr.com
- https://healthysexymarriageblog.tumblr.com
- https://thepromiscuouscouple.tumblr.com
- https://thesmithsarefun.tumblr.com
- https://female-orgasm-denial.tumblr.com
- https://hotwivescuckolds.tumblr.com
- https://hotwifewetkisses.tumblr.com/
- https://rogersxworld.tumblr.com/
Good alternatives
After the excitement has died down, there are now good Tumblr alternatives with a focus on pornography.
In the American language, they are called “NSFW portals”. NSFW is the abbreviation for “Not Safe For Work”. NSFW websites are only suitable for home and not for the workplace screen.
- Meanwhile, bdsmlr.com is one of the most popular alternatives. Dedicated Tumblr users had united and simply replicated the platform. The feature set, page layout and even the dark blue colors are identical.
- The newest Tumblr alternative is reblogme.co. This platform looks almost 1:1 like the original project, and it is growing rapidly!
- Very often, mewe.com is also mentioned. Although the provider has literally advertised to be able to import the porn blogs of angry Tumblr owners, officially porn content is only tolerated. Outwardly, there is no official search function for pornography.
- Twitter.com is also an extremely good alternative. However, Twitter also only tolerates pornographic content. It is to be expected that a complete porn ban will be introduced there very soon and NSFW content will be completely deleted or hidden. You cannot search for sexual terms (anymore) via the search function.
- The fifth recommendation is sharesome.com. The interface looks completely different, but you quickly get used to the design and can easily find porn content.
- blogr.xxx (offline since March 2022) seems to be developing into a serious porn blogging platform.
- You can read from time to time that vk.com mobile is also used as an alternative. However, the lack of a web interface does not make this service very attractive.
- The alternative https://humblr.social had apparently not prevailed and is now called mastodon.social.
In the meantime, there was once the platform Swarmr, which has since been discontinued. Pinterest and Instagram do not allow pornographic content.
Conclusion: Tumblr is no longer funny for cuckolds, hotwifes and wifesharers
As the blue “top dog of yore” has been perpetually dying a slow death since 2018. But even though Tumblr is doomed to complete irrelevance, there are still a few good porn blogs for hotwifes, cuckolds and wifesharers to be found.
However, the search proves to be very annoying and tedious. You virtually have to know the URL exactly as insider tips and then you are squeezed into a severely crippled window with minimal functionality.
We recommend you to save your energy and time and instead register on bdsmlr.com. The interface there has been recreated almost identically and searching for horny erotic blogs, porn clips, captions and sex pictures proves to be just as easy and intuitive there as on the pre-2018 original.
We regret the demise of the porn comet. Hardly any platform came close to such a great user experience, the incredible content quantity and the internationally close-knit users.
