This leads me to think that most instances will block tumblr once they realize how detrimental it is
@dansup The problem with that is that the people who tend to be on #Tumblr are also the ones who would be drawn to #Mastodon and the #Fediverse.
This means that a high percentages of admins and mods will have an emotional attachment to Tumblr, because of their experiences there, so there are going to be instances that will resist blocking it, no matter how detrimental it is.
@dansup ooof yeah. I've heard similar issues at smaller scale with mastodon.social sending a constant stream of delete activities. Is this... something AP can fix at the protocol level in a future revision?
Also Tumblr isn't a charity, they are a for-profit company.
Do you want them to steward the fediverse, maybe include a few ads here and there for the privilege of their participation?
I think they will soon realize the cost-benefit analysis doesn't correlate to their bottom line.
People over profits, don't settle.
@dansup
Solo micro instances will help alleviate this problem. Once turn-key solutions come on line people won't need Tumblr.
