    Fantastic idea! I miss Tumblr terribly ever since the Great Porn Ban of 2018, even though I never even reblogged or followed ‘adult’ blogs. I just wanted to reblog holsum and funny fanart, but fuck giving into puritan corpo censorship.

    What’s the moderation policy on genocide denial and the like? I hate having to ask this, but having heard too many people deny the Holodomor on here, I feel it necessary to make the inquiry.

    For that matter, more generally, are you prepared, in terms of moderation structure, for the massive amount of legitimately disturbing material that’s going to pass through the site and will need to be removed if the site grows beyond a few hundred users? I would hate to join and then see this crash because of (completely understandable) moderator/admin burnout at the depravity and speed of mankind’s worst elements.

    You had me at reticulating splines.

    e. Registrations over VPN are disabled. Pause it while registering or you’ll have to spend an entire minute rewriting the stuff D=

        My god cat with disturbingly human lips, the internet is back.

        Seriously, I love it. Correct amount of humor and functionality. I’m on the road but I’ll be signing up for sure.

    Well, tumblr died out in 2017 because they said “NO PORN!!!”

    And all the blogs died.

    It’s like Dr Cox said: “If you take all the porn off the internet, there’d only be one website left. www.bringbacktheporn.com and nobody would visit because it doesn’t have porn.”

    So. Does WAFRN have porn? And also…why are these things ALWAYS named with weird hard to pronounce names? Come see my new website Drufyflezak!

      I always figured because the weird names have cheaper domain registrations. However wafrn is a pretty short name so, it probably is on the high end.

    I know bsky is not everyone’s jam. But I promise wafrn will do the best to protect you from stupid shit they do. The main wafrn instance has blocked jd vance as example ;D

    Exciting! I’ve made an effort to let go of Insta for both privacy and hatred of Zuck’s policies, which left me stuck on Tumblr to look at any fanart/fandom content. Hopefully this could replace people’s need for Tumblr in a few years, especially since they also do a shit job of caring about their users.

    Edit: Knowing the context of the name is hilarious, wish I was there for the Tumblr exodus. I will be sure to spread to other platforms about this wonderful service.
