old lady reminisce

Tumblr is just amazing for fanart (seriously, it was so hard finding large amounts of good fanart back in the day), getting fandom news, and just being fannish in general. People will make posts and reblog even just one small scene, or one observation of a character.

Buuut... I really, really miss the discussion format/open-forum space that lj comms used to allow. I loved reading the debates and varying opinions, and discussions that would happen, and participating in those discussions myself (kind of like the atmosphere here at fs!). On tumblr you only get single blog posts announcing statements out to everyone who looks at the tag/follows them, which will get likes or reblogs in the form of 'feedback'. Or you'll get a reblogged conversation going on between a few people, and one that you'd feel weird participating in because you're not in their group of friends. The discussion and mass fan participation is just totally gone.
I also miss being able to easily meet fans of things you like through communities dedicated to a certain ship or character. It's a lot harder to do that on tumblr, if you don't go out and do the 'networking' yourself

And there, that's my old lady reminisce for lj. I like tumblr, but sometimes I wish there could be both.

Yes. I want to have conversations with people.

this is the most concise explanation of tumblr vs livejournal-type websites I've seen, will bookmark this, thanks
