Post+ is coming soon

What’s Post+?

Oh, thank you for asking this totally unprompted question! Tumblr’s Post+ is our new tool that allows creators to make some of their posts exclusive to paid supporters and allows people to support their favorite creators. It’s an optional way to support and encourage your favorite creators on Tumblr, and it’s all done in the existing post form with the existing tools you all know and love.

Why Post+?

Creators are the backbone of Tumblr—whether they’re GIF artists, illustrators, comedians, cosplayers, or just really good shitposters. Since our founding, we have always believed in empowering the world’s creators to show off their best work. Post+ now gives these same creators the ability to earn money from their work.

Post+ is optional, right?

Right! Post+ simply gives creators the freedom to pick and choose which posts they want public and which posts they want only their paid supporters to see. Creators who use Post+ have the ability to choose how much of their content is free and public. Post+ is an optional program—the creator has the power to decide if they want to participate or not. The creator also has the ability to choose from a select set of predefined subscription pricing structures for their supporters.

Can I have it?

When Post+ fully launches, it will be available for anyone who wants to use it. Right now it’s still in its beta phase of testing. We want to make sure that everyone’s experience with Post+ is without any hiccups or bugs. We’re working with a very limited number of creators who are testing it out for us. But! If you want to get notified when more beta testing spaces open up, please sign up here.

Anything else?

If you want to stay up-to-date on all things Post+, give @postplus a follow. It’s where we’re posting FAQs and answering your questions. If you want to give feedback, fill out this survey here. Thanks for your patience, Tumblr.

The communities that make up Tumblr are built by artists, writers, GIF artists, shitposters, illustrators, and other creators sharing their talents with the world. It’s a place where the world's creators can put their best work in front of an incredible audience. The tools that we built are built for creators and artists to do just that. Over the years we've watched countless careers born here, books launched, talents discovered. Tumblr connects people to their audiences and allows them to pursue their work in a greater capacity. We want that to be achievable for everyone on our platform.

Post+ is a move toward this goal—making sure creators who dedicate their time and effort to producing content have the choice to be paid for some of what they do, if they decide it makes sense for them.

Right now, we’ve got our beta testers and a world of feedback to incorporate, which is exactly how things get made and get better.

We do, however, want to address the main concerns we are hearing:

Fanfiction & Copyright Infringement

Basically, the process works the same as it always has. And yes, the following information is coming to you straight from a lawyer:

Using the block feature and Post+

We will continue to answer questions over the next few weeks over on @postplus

As always, our priority is the people who make up this weird blue universe, and we’ll keep working to make sure we’re serving you as well as we can.

Why are you putting time into developing a feature that 99% of your userbase said they would hate and not use? Do you seriously think this joke of a feature, which all your users hate, will make you enough money to pull tumblr out of its trend of rapidly declining value? Is that what it is? If you need money you could focus on fixing your broken ad system, for one. For every 10 legible ads I see on tumblr mobile, there are at least 15 illegible ones. Oh, and fixing blog search might be nice seeing as that’s a basic feature that every other website can somehow figure out. Why are you creating new systems without fixing the existing ones? It’s like you’re trying to get tumblr to bite the dust once and for all. 

You’re driving a car that is already on fire into an oil refinery and when everyone in the back seat says “STOP WE HATE THIS IDEA” you blast the radio and step on the gas pedal harder.

the sheer number of randos with like 2 followers who have multi page carrds... ok narcissus

like if you’re a popular artist or something and are tired of answering the same basic personal questions then like yeah I can see why you’d make a carrd. But does 22 y/o jayden who does nothing but retweet bnha fan art and complain about their job at Starbucks need a carrd to tell us that they only use she/her on Tuesdays and don’t want to interact with people with undertale icons bc it reminds them of their abusive discord ex

please understand that the only time I will be reading your carrd is if you’ve said something embarrassingly stupid online and I want more material to laugh at

a weird bug just got generated mid air and dropped directly onto my foot. glitch in the matrix

foot was sticking off the bed, cus I was chilling. suddenly hear a “plap” and feel something drop on my foot. Look away from my computer screen and find that a large, long, three segmented black insect with horns on its ass has dropped onto my foot. Look up at ceiling. clean smooth ceiling with no holes or cracks. Bug has no wings, could not have flown. Seems content to just crawl around on my foot. I’m better with bugs now but this is pushing it a little. Pluck bug off, squish thoroughly with napkin, flush down toilet. Compose tumblr post to process event
