Yeah, this. And there's nothing equivalent to LJ's communities, where you could post infrequently and still assume most of your fandom would at least see it. On tumblr you're lucky if a third of your followers are online at the time you post and if you're REALLY lucky one or two of them will reblog it. Otherwise, forget it, people aren't going to see that you even posted something.

da

Exactly. Even if you had a substantial Flist on LJ, you could create filters etc. and prioritize what you wanted to catch up on that had been posted while you were offline. You didn't miss much, even if your friends were prolific posters.

On Tumblr, I can't find something in my dash that I saw half an hour ago, let alone something that was posted in the previous 24 hours.

That's exactly what pushed me to start browsing tumblr through RSS feeds instead of the dashboard. It comes with its own problems, but at least I can easily check what so-and-so has posted even if it was a couple days ago without having to scroll through a bunch of shit I don't really want to look at right now.

(Doesn't say much for the site when you have to sidestep their interface to make it tolerable)

You mean like the best features Tumblr has, Xkit and Tumblr Savior?

It's not even that you have to sidestep it, you virtually have to break it and put it back together again to make it tolerable.

Ugh, yes, it's such an issue. On LJ you could keep up with the fandom, and you knew that you always had the chance of somebody coming across your fic on one of the main comms, being intrigued, and clicking. On tumblr, unless you get reblogs you're ignored - which means that only popularity can breed popularity. It's a cycle.

It's also a difference because on LJ you had to make sure to provide your own exposure to a certain extent, now you're dependent on others for exposure.
