LJ/DW reminded me more of Reddit. You mostly ignore the gigantic or default groups which is full of typical stupid casual shooting-the-shit and focus on the very small hyper-focused subreddits you like. You start to recognize the regular users. Each community has its own unspoken etiquette and are mostly or completely disconnected from the others. The activity level is lower but more streamlined and on topic. Antis don't intrude anywhere except by forming their own communities because community moderation is available and active, which is a plus in my book.

Tumblr reminded me of Facebook. You "friend" users you know or like or think you like, pick the tags you like and are spammed with everything in them, good and bad. Lots of tags overlap with other things, so people hop community lines and etiquette are blurred and cause drama. There are some big name prolific or popular accounts but there's no sense of community. Just masses of faceless "fans of A/B ship" love em or hate em. There's no way to moderate what goes in a tag or shows up in your feed or not without you "unfriending" or blacklisting each thing specifically, after you've unfortunately already seen it. On the plus side, there is tons more sheer content.

I agree with your analysis, but the tons of content is mostly brainless chain-letter crap.

AYRT

I think both sites have equal amounts of brainless chain-letter crap, but it's just harder to avoid on Tumblr.
