Oh Yahoo. So monetizing Tumblr didn't go quite according to plan? and now PORN OMG! Well, I'm here! I've always been here! And there is nothing new under the sun.
There was Pornish Pixies and Strikethrough and Boldthrough and the fanfiction.net purges, https://fanlore.org/wiki/FanFiction.Net's_NC-17_Purges:_2002_and_2012 (which I had to type out because the link ends up being weird).
And before that, we would have content creators like Lucasfilm tell fan creators that zines were OK so long as they were "family friendly" and Cease & Desist letters from Viacom, Paramount and 20th Century Fox. And it all worked SO WELL in the 90s and early 2000's.
So, save your stuff, post it somewhere (or several somewheres) and maybe we'll see a resurgence in microblogging again? Or something new?
