    Fred Wilson being wise as usual. "Tumblr was an example of how to do social media right and we can learn a lot from it."https://avc.com/2019/08/tumblr-2/ …

        Just from reading this tweet Fred Wilson sounds like a disgusting human being.

        If you think that, you should read more. Should someone base their full-opinion on you based off of one statement you’ve ever made?

        It’s interesting that Fred experienced Tumblr as a largely positive place. I think it had strong effects among young people (Tumblr had to be proactive about anorexia tags for example.) I also kinda blame it for a huge rise in call-out culture but maybe that’s my bias speaking.

        "There was a time around 2010 and 2011 when Tumblr was the most engaging social platform that I was on. I followed and met quite a few interesting people there and it was a lot of fun to be on it." https://avc.com/2019/08/tumblr-2/ … This is @Twitter for me now.
