I just got over the depressive suicide thought flood and looking for a new place to post WIPs and Crap... Because Tumblr completely trashed my page and profile... Crap, Shitpostings as in thoughts and happenings in between my WIPs like you usually do on a general art blog tyhat is not strict and demanding to quality only.
@ArtsyCosmicDreamer @zanaelf Yeah it sucks. BUT good news is, they made a post saying that they will allow invites again once their list for the site is done which is actually quite short. I can't make any promises, but chances are you'll probably be able to join by late febuary or early March.
The post is here. https://www.pillowfort.io/Staff
You could post your wips on Twitter in the meantime. Also, I am very excited for Pillowfort. I am not denying what Tumblr did is awful, but people will survive. The demand for NSFW content is enormous, and similar to how AO3 has pretty much replaced Fanfiction.net and doesn't seem to be going away any time soon, the same will happen to Pillowfort. Also, I don't think the Tumblr situation will ever occur on PF, since PF is working to remove all child pornography, both real and fictional. Compare this to Tumblr, which had a very poor data base and is now using an awful filteration system.
I also reccomend Luscious.net as a back up. Sure, it's mainly Pinterest for porn, but similiar to Pinterest, it can be great for finding refrences, and a great way to back up your art. I LOVE NSFW artists and I feel so bad for many of them, including you. Hope you feel better!
Thank you... I gave pillowfort my email... I just have to be patient.
If you also want to help yourself monetarily, I highly reccomend Sharesome. It's a new platform for NSFW content creators and is basically a hybrid of Facebook and Twitter, with minor elements from Instagram. They have a bitcoin system, and it's users can help support NSFW content creators! They accept NSFW performers and artists. It may not seem that way since most are sex workers, but if you go to verification, they have a tab for ''illustrator.''
I am just looking for exposure, where I can continue to share my work... including the WIPs which I used to do on Tumblr until they flipped their shit and punish all artists because of some pedos posting childporn.
The term NSFW is stupid, it bases itself on religio - corporate ideology of what is kosher or not. When I first heard "Not Safe For Work" I assumed it about wearing protective clothing , tying up hair, not wearing a tie, wearing a helmet, putting on safety googles when doing work... not human beings or humanoid beings without any clothing. It's dumb.
This planet is so fucked up. Thanks again for the info and trying to help.. I would put it in my list of places to explore for new place to post my WIPs without any stupid bullshit rules morals based on religious and corporate foundations of assumed decency.
Thank you,.
@ArtsyCosmicDreamer @zanaelf Yeah I agree. I think this whole push to destroy content like this is dumb. DeviantArt, Youtube, an Instagram I can understand since they're used by kids. But Tumblr has always been 17 plus. How is adult content not welcome on a 17 plus website? It's stupid.
Your welcome.I'm just glad I was able to help.
Hey, quick updates! I was finding some random posts on Twitter, and I found something quite interesting! It's called newTumble.com. It's a Tumblr alternative that's ready and censorship free! You can post your wips there!
Thank you :-)
but
"is a totally awesome idea still being worked on.
Check back later."
@ArtsyCosmicDreamer @zanaelf Huh, thats strange. Works fine for me. Piczel is also something I found. It's a live stream/art sharing site hybrid, and it's good for posting wips. Also, most of the content there is sexual in nature, so I'm sure you won't have to worry about it being taken down.
Hey, sorry to bother ya again. Recently found this thing called XStumble, and it's the closest to Tumblr I could find.

You could try Pixiv. They're the only site I know that also allows NSFW content besides NG.
If you want a blogging format, Dreamwidth is nice. You could also check out Pillowfort once they accept invites again.

Thank you , yes I saw pillow fort which look like the best alternative but ... the invites thing again....
