Hi everyone! With the recent wave of bad decisions from Tumblr and constant posts about shady stuff on other sites, this seems to be a good opportunity to throw another option into the rink.

https://waterfall.social

Waterfall is a tumblelog platform, built from the ground up. There are no gimmicks, or attempts to be unique - just a pure, familiar style, catered to artists, adult (and otherwise) bloggers, and… well, everyone really. Tumblr’s style is familiar - why ditch it? It just needs a little love to make it worth using.

There’s a robust, constantly evolving system to ensure that artists are credited for their work. If you upload art, and someone tries to upload it later? It’s automatically converted into a reblog of your original upload. Someone steals it anyway? See something that breaks the rules? Don’t worry - all reports are manually reviewed, we’ll set things right.

More importantly, there’s no company behind Waterfall. That means no corporate hammer saying what we can and can’t do; it’s just down to a few trusted volunteers to keep things running smoothly, all checking each other’s work to make sure nobody does anything uncool.

Here’s some more of what Waterfall either currently offers, or is on the roadmap for inclusion in the next few updates!

• Artist credit system.
  

• Send asks and like from sideblog.

• Seperate follow lists for sideblogs.

• Want to make a different blog your main? Go ahead!

• NSFW Content allowed.

• Manual (not algorithmic!) report reviewing.

• ZERO signup costs or waiting periods.
  

And more! The site is in heavy development, and we want to build a platform the way it should be, from the ground up. With that in mind, there’s a few things missing, or not working right yet - if you see one, or just have a neato suggestion, you’re more than welcome to join our Discord and suggest stuff. If you’re thinking of joining, go back up your Tumblr theme; we’ll be trying for 1:1 imports of them at a later date.
