Yes, we already know and this is why we have setup a mirror account at Dreamwidth. Honestly, I’d prefer to move there all together, but I realise that a lot of you are unwilling to leave Tumblr and I don’t want to force people into leaving. Many fandoms are in a precarious place right now. A lot have jumped ship, but the alternatives are all over the place. I imagine it would take years before we settle in another social media platform, so I can’t blame people for not wanting to take that leap of faith yet.

We don’t really access Twitter that often. Our Twitter account there is mainly a crosspost, and I personally don’t have access to it so I will not be able to check direct messages.

Our mod account at Dreamwidth can receive private messages, though. Of course, one needs to have an account and anonymous messaging is not possible. However, if there’s a growing demand of sending confessions elsewhere, I will make a post in that account allowing screened anonymous comments. They won’t be published, but we will be able to see them.

Speaking of Tumblr sucking, I’ve just found out that we have lost our avatar and header image. They did say that “the avatars and headers for these blogs will also be reverted to the default settings.” Also, I can’t access the dirtyasscreedsecrets.tumblr.com on my web browser. I’m trying to look for the option to turn off safe browsing, but wow, did Tumblr remove that option as well?

To be honest, I’m actually very seriously considering moving to Dreamwidth all together. This Tumblr will still be operational, but I think moving main operations to https://dirtyasscreedsecrets.dreamwidth.org will be better for us in the long run. What do our patrons think?

I will need to confer this with other mods as well, but in light of these new developments, transferring seems really like the better option.
