Tumblr is thriving btw Most HNers wouldn't survive there though

  By survive do you mean they actually kill people or technically minded folk would leave because it's shite? I just went there out of interest and it didn't look great. Scrolled down, got annoying pop-up, left.

    Tumblr requires a certain amount of tribal knowledge to get value out of. The site is newbie hostile almost on purpose. Doesn't affect me or all the people happily using it over all the SV alternatives though. It's not a site whose value can be judged in 5 min of viewing.

    Also I said thrive For instance, if you wanna be in the know about your favorite band's tour, tumblr is probably the best place to do it (even better than twitter due to the quality of discussion). It's the closest thing to the fan forums of old we have in the social media era.
