They... Still have SO MUCH PORN.

You can't search for it directly, you have to search tangential items and then follow other people who post stuff you like.

It's a rabbit hole but it's there.

That seems like a lot of work considering the alternatives.

No website (that I've ever found) has quite managed to replicate how tumblr works in terms of discovery, customization, community, and organization, so some people prefer to put in the work for the sake of using a format they prefer.

how tumblr works in terms of discovery

I really like Tumblr (mainly because RSS support), but I find their search VERY limited. Maybe I'm being stupid, but I haven't been able to search for 2 tags at the same time (e.g.: "#artists on tumblr" and some genre "#pixelart").

In general I find very difficult to filter repost and look for original content only.

Do you have any tips?

When I say discovery I mean it's much easier to be discovered as an artist on tumblr compared to any other website I've used.

I find it's easier to find certain new stuff if you follow the right people or look through more specific tags.

It is.

But you end up with a highly curated experience for your particular fetish that's not readily available on pornhub, ET al.
