Throwing in the Tumblr

I am a little concerned right now.

Tumblr has been in the news again. Not for any particular controversy, rather it is coming to light that revenue is starting to be a problem for the service. For me this is unfortunate, as my Tumblr is easily the best performing out of all of my social media platforms, it is also my best fed as the simple format allows for me to casually update it with photo updates of my current WiPs with minimal effort. The only platform that offers anything similar is Instagram, and if I migrate, I will be starting again from scratch.

I have considered doing more Youtube stuff, unfortunately video production requires an order of magnitude more work, and quite frankly I don't have the voice or the face for it. A Facebook page is just meh, and it doesn't quite have the discover ability of the other platforms. Finally, for me, Twitter these days is nothing but retweeting dumb stuff, socialism and other people's minis. What's more, I'm genuinely scared of having an open account due to the quite frankly scary amount of fash types online and out for blood these days.

So, as I go forward, I'm going to take the attitude of hope for the best prepare for the worst. Investigations into Instagram shall commence immediately, including opening an account and starting to mirror my posting with my regular Tumblr traffic. I'm also approaching the end of the line with Bolt Action British infantry, so very soon I hope to start on a swath of more interesting and diverse Warhammer 40k projects, which are far better fodder for the internets that the World War 2 related nonsense.

Anyway, just so everyone is aware. I hope to get posting again once my slow burn projects are done.
