Well, so as the thing says, I’ve updated the software a lot, comissioned an artist for a logo and now is not a hell to install.
@gabboman @fediverse oh wow I wonder who would develop this
Is this comment made from a wafrn instance? It’s cool that it works with lemmy
@arudesalad its more like in mastodon tbh. its a comment to a post
I was just scrolling through the instance to see what it is like and I saw this post, I know it’s federation but it is still really cool
@arudesalad sometimes… shit… just works!
What differences does this have over Lemmy?
Edit: I never actually used Tumbler
lemmy is reddit. wafrn is tumblr
Tumblr is a blogging experience that’s similar to Twitter, but more focused on the user itself than on the central feed.
- You have your blogs and you post there. Yes, you can have many blogs.
- There’s global feeds with posts from all users, potentially including yours.
- Posts can have non-intrusive hashtags, meaning they are not #partOfThePost, but in a separate, smaller, dedicated section of the post.
- You can’t post stuff to someone else’s blog, but you can comment on their posts. Comments are tiny next to the post.
- You can quote posts, but that makes a duplicate in a blockquote rather than linking to the original post like Twitter
Like the title says, it’s meant to be a Tumblr-esque experience.
@technomad @gabboman ok so reddit is like a forum. Tumblr is twitter without sucking that much ass. I mean, it does because ceo has gne full cunt mode, but anyway
take alook how it looks
Okay, but why male models?
No alt right, no nazis, no terfs.
How it’s possible to enforce this on self-hostable software?
How do you pronounce Wafrn?
I read it as “waff-run”
It’s an acronym - “What Asshole Fucking wRote Name”
I chose the second one
[Borat voice: wife!] right now
The more alternatives to corporation owned social media the better! I hope it takes off, but I’ve never really been a Tumblr guy.
Keep making open source projects words no one can pronounce or spell. I love using stuff no one uses… glad it’s being worked on but wow it’s like a battle to name things confusing sets of letters
I’m sure they are up for suggests as that name is not doing it any favours.
Interesting choice of name to say the least…
Wafrn, in MY Lemmy?? It’s more likely than I thought!
Seriously though I LOVE Wafrn. I got into Tumblr right at the tail end immediately before it went to shit, and I always regretted not doing it sooner. Wafrn rules.
