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.
How do you pronounce Wafrn?
I read it as “waff-run”
It’s an acronym - “What Asshole Fucking wRote Name”
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.
The more alternatives to corporation owned social media the better! I hope it takes off, but I’ve never really been a Tumblr guy.
What differences does this have over Lemmy?
Edit: I never actually used Tumbler
lemmy is reddit. wafrn is tumblr
Like the title says, it’s meant to be a Tumblr-esque experience.
Tumblr is short-form blogging platform, inspired by tumbleblogs, which were a thing back in the day (another example of Big Tech lifting an idea and then walling it off). So it’s like micro-blogging but without the word limit, so you can throw out a thought or a picture or a video, or go into greater detail if the mood took you. On Tumblr people would tend to have a few on different topics.
I much preferred it to Twitter as it felt a lot more free-form but usually focused on a topic.
