Tumblr ’s ukugcwala kwabantu behlile okoko banqunyanyiswe phakathi kuDisemba kuyo yonke into yabantu abadala, kubandakanya ne-fanart ecacileyo. Olu tshintsho lubetha njani kuluntu lwabalandeli?
Sibhale malunga nokuba kutheni ukuvalwa kweTumblr kumxholo wabantu abadala Ibingumbono ombi , kwaye impendulo ngokubanzi phakathi kweqonga lomsebenzisi yayiyingqumbo kunye nomsindo. Ngaphezulu kwama-400,000 abantu Ityikitye utshintsho.org isikhalazo ukurhoxisa umgaqo-nkqubo wokuvalwa ngaphambi kokuba uqalise ukusebenza, kungabikho nto. Ngaphandle komsindo wokuphulukana neminyaka yokudala kunye nomxholo okhethiweyo, iTumblr ibonwe njengendawo ekhuselekileyo yokuhlola ngokwesondo, indawo apho abantu banokuthi babonakalise ubuni babo phakathi koluntu oluxhasayo.
Emva kokuhla kokuthandwa kwe-Livejournal (kunye neyayo isabelo semigaqo-nkqubo eyoyikisayo ), I-Tumblr nayo yaba sisiseko senkcubeko ye-fandom. Ngaphezulu kweminyaka elishumi uthungelwano lwebhlogi yentlalo lukhuthaze abadali ukuba benze indawo yabo ibe likhaya labo, kwaye abalandeli abangenakubalwa kunye nabazobi abaziingcali bazinyanzela apho.
I-Tumblr ayikaze ibe njengobhalo-obunobuhlobo, olumkileyo: njengombhali, unethamsanqa ukuba umzamo wakho ufumene amanqaku ambalwa. Unako, nangona kunjalo, ukunxibelelana namabali akho abanjwe kuVimba wethu kwaye ufumane umkhondo kunye nabalandeli ngaloo ndlela. (Zombini iimemes ezihlekisayo kunye nezithuba zentetho zihambile ngcono kunokubhala ngobuchule, kuguqula imeko yezopolitiko yabasebenzisi abaninzi.)
Yintoni i-Tumblr eyayibonelela ngefandoms yayiyinto yokuhlala unxibelelana, umsinga wokuthatha inxaxheba owawubonakala ungathandekiyo. Nanini na xa ungena, kuya kubakho ukungena okutsha kwee-gifsets, ii-memes, fanart, ukuhlelwa kweefoto, iividiyo, amabali kunye nengxoxo. Unokwenza abahlobo abatsha ngokuthumela ii-Asks kunye nemiyalezo ethe ngqo kamva. Kwakulula ukukhangela kunye nokufumana iiblogi ezazithe phithi zizinto ezifanayo nezo wawukuzo, kunye nokuzibona kwiTumblr yayinohlobo lwesifo esosulelayo: andinakubala inani leepropathi zemithombo yeendaba kunye neenqanawa endazaziyo ngenxa yenzondelelo. Ukusuka kwabanye kwideshibhodi yam indenze ndanomdla.
Kudala kuyinto ehlekisayo (eyinyani) ukuba ukuba ngengozi ulayishe kwakhona idash yakho ngekhe uphinde ufumane isithuba osibonileyo sihamba, oko yayikukutshatyalaliswa komxholo ophuma mihla le.
Ukusuka kwinto endikhe ndayibona, iifandoms zichaphazelekile ngumxholo wabantu abadala-kaninzi ngokomgaqo ngaphezulu kokuphulukana nokuziphilisa kunye nomxholo owasokoliswa ngabantu baseTumblr abathengisa ngesondo. Uburhalarhume ngomgaqo-nkqubo, kunye nokubumbana kwabo umsebenzi wabo uphantsi kwebhlokhi, kwaqhubela abantu abaninzi kwenye indawo.
Indawo ethandwa kakhulu ibonakala njenge-Twitter, esele ibanjelwe kuluntu lwabalandeli kwaye ingekho kwi-bar ye-NSFW yangoku. Abantu abaninzi abadala ubugcisa obucacileyo batshintshele kugxila kwi-Twitter, kodwa kuyacaphukisa kakhulu ukuba bakhe abalandeli abaninzi kwiTumblr kule minyaka idlulileyo kwaye baphulukane nabaphulaphuli ngeflip enye yokutshintsha komgaqo-nkqubo. Abo bavelisi kunqabile ukuba basebenze kuphela kumxholo ocacileyo; Ngokulahleka kwabo, siphulukana nayo yonke eminye imisebenzi ngebabelane ngayo kwiTumblr. Kwaye kubabhali bexesha elide, i-Twitter ayinikezeli kakhulu ngaphandle.
Abanye abantu baye batshintshela kumaqonga anjenge-Dreamwidth kunye ne-WordPress, kunye ne-newowstart pillowfort.io. I-Discord, incoko yokubhaliweyo kunye nenkqubo yelizwi eyaziwayo kuqala kubadlali bebhola, ikhule kwakhona njengendawo ekuyiwa kuyo kuluntu oluthile lwabalandeli, nangona kufuneka ube nesimemo sokungena kwiingxoxo ezingafaniyo; ezi zifana negadi ezibiyelweyo. Okucacileyo kukuba kuye kwakho ukuphuma okuqhekezayo kwiTumblr, kunye nabo bashiye ukusasazeka baya kwiikona ezikude kwaye akukho namnye ucace kwelinye iqonga elikwaziyo ukubuyisela into eyayiyiTumblr.
I-Tumblr ayifanga kwaphela, kunjalo. Abantu abaninzi bahlala, kodwa ngokokubona kwam, kuye kwakho ukwehla okubonakalayo komsebenzi. Ndihamba ukusuka kwintsebenzo yemihla ngemihla ukujonga indawo mhlawumbi kanye ngeveki. Xa ndenza njalo, uninzi lomxholo wedatha yam ubonakala ngathi usekwe kwimemes kunye nezithuba ezinamakhulu amawaka eenowuthsi kunokuba kungomxholo we-fandom-centric ngqo. Kuvakala ngokungathi kukho ukunqongophala kwamandla kunye nokuqhuba. Ii-Anecdotes ezivela kubahlobo kunye namava abanye kubonakala ngathi ziyakuthwala oku. Umsebenzisi weTumblr uxelele uMary Sue:
abantu abaninzi endibalandelayo abathumela rhoqo babuya / abashiyanga emva kukaDisemba 17 kodwa njengayo yonke into kwideshi yam baziva ngathi ngabantu abangama-25 ngoku, kwaye kuxakekile. Kukho iindlela ezolulekileyo ngoku apho ndihlala khona ndihlaziya umphezulu wedeshi embindini wento ekufuneka ukuba ibe ngamaxesha asebenzayo kwaye ungafumani phantse izithuba.
Sivile nokuba abanye abasebenzisi babonile ukuphakama kwi-bots ebalandelayo, ekunokwenzeka ukuba, yayiyingxaki ekufanele ukuba kujongwane nayo. Kwaye izixhobo zeTumblr zokufumana umxholo wabantu abadala ziyaqhubeka nokudubula kakubi kwaye zichonge imifanekiso emsulwa ngokugqibeleleyo; enye endiyibonileyo ifakwe kwiiflagi zam yayiyifoto yenkwenkwezi ye-movie egxadazela injana. Izinto ezinobungozi apho.
I-Fandoms iquka indawo yendalo ephangaleleyo kwihlabathi liphela, ke ndiyazi ukuba ezam iimbono kunye nezimvo zabanye ezibuzwayo azithethi ngento osenokuba uyibonile. Ndinomdla wokuba abantu baziva njani kwiikona zabo zokuthanda.

I-Intanethi inemijikelezo yobomi ebesikade siphantsi kwayo ngaphambili, kwaye ndicinga ukuba kwikamva kuya kubakho indawo entsha okanye inkonzo eya kuthi ilawule ukutsala iifandom kwaye inikezele ngakumbi kuluntu oluphakathi. Okwangoku, ngelixa i-Tumblr ingafanga, ngokuqinisekileyo ayifani, kwaye kunzima ukucinga ukuba kuya kuba njalo kwakhona. Sitshele ukuba uboneni kwizimvo.
