Been wanting to try a tumblr-like, so I signed up for PillowFort.social to give that a try.
It's adfree, free (a few optional pay features+donation funded), and has explicitly stated they will always allow legal NSFW content.
So far I've met some nice trans folks and seen a lot of cool art/artists. Seems a bit quiet and sleepy but the text box is way bigger and since there's no algorithm the quiet aspect may be my fault 😁
It's invite only but you can use this to sign up right away (I don't get anything out of this aside from your presence on the site if you join!): invite link
