It *is* impractical, and I'll never understand the people who argue that it's ~not hard~ to hold conversations there, when it's obvious that's not the kind of interaction tumblr was made for.

/another grumbler in their rocking chair

I think you mean 'grumblr'.

*fleeees*

AYRT

I thought about making that joke, but I didn't want to fumblr it.

[(Anonymous)]

It's not what the site was made for, but the difficulty of holding conversations is pretty variable, IMO. Two, three, four people and it isn't annoying at all, but the aggravation factor increases exponentially as more commenters get involved.

[(Anonymous)]

Holding conversations on Tumblr isn't actually *hard* if it's only between two people. It's when you're trying to hold a three or more way conversation that things go to hell.

And when you're sifting through a user's posts and you read the start of the same discussion every time there's a new post and it nests until there's basically one word per line...

[(Anonymous)]

I've seen threads that nested so far

1) there was less than one word per line,
li
ke
t
hi
s.

2) I could only barely read them on my phone because the posts were so far to the right they didn't show up on the phone's display (unless I horizontal-scrolled for ages).

Holding conversations is a bit hard if you have an art blog or anything moderately..."professional" if that's even the right word. But especially with art. I'm bad enough at reblogging silly things, but a conversation is just one post reblogged over and over again. LJ and Dreamwidth are much nicer conversation formats--threads and everyone join in and everything (because yeah, it's pretty easy to miss a conversation moment on tumblr if there's a bunch of reblogs or even just a few).

I liked Gail Simone's point of how it's designed to more or less be a positive place--sharing or liking is pretty much all you can do.
