Curated Tumblr

For preserving the least toxic and most culturally relevant Tumblr heritage posts.

Image descriptions and plain text captions of written content are expected of all screenshots. Here are some image text extractors (I looked these up quick and will gladly take FOSS recommendations):

-web

-iOS

-android

Please begin copied raw text posts (lacking a screenshot that makes it apparent it is from Tumblr) with:

# This has been reposted here to Lemmy as part of the "Curated Tumblr Project."

I made the icon using multiple creative commons svg resources, the banner is this.

Is this a screenshot of Tumblr, that’s a screenshot of 4chan, that’s a screenshot of a news article?

What a future.

Take a lemmy screenshot and post it to Facebook

Memba when they marketed the web as this great big all-encompassing thing where you could find anything if you knew where and how to look? The modern web is like 6 sites chained together in a Content Centipede.

In a couple of years it will be almost exclusively ai content that's been trained on other ai content.

I'll be honest, I'm kinda hype to see the ragged edge of AI trained on AI trained on AI down a few dozen levels deep. The slow literal disintegration of data outputted by a system that has no concept of meaning, only pattern-matching, is gonna end up building entire cities in the uncanny calley

It will be horrible. This will be the only face you see in media...forever...

I think it's a Tumblr post that contains a collage of the news article, wolf picture, and a section of the 4chan post.

It's like the human centipede, if it was a complete circle.

I wonder, if you twist one of the people could you make a human Mobius strip?

[–] Restaldt@lemm.ee 3 points 7 months ago

No but you can make a human particle collider

Five giant websites, each filled with screenshots of the other four.

Welcome to the enshitification.

Just because you want to use our new favorite word doesn't mean it always applies

My eyes rolled audibly when I read the comment you’re replying to

The quality is surprisingly good, though. Usually they're blurred all to hell.
