    For those that don’t know, word has been a while from the CEO of tumblr that they will federate with the fediverse.

    They apparently hesitated recently for fear of overrunning the fediverse with their relative size. But that might have changed now since Meta are coming with their platform. And also the fediverse keeps growing.

        It’s certainly true that the CEO committed to federating. I can assure you. They said they’d do it ASAP after sorting other scaling issues of their own out.

        Word is though that they’ve been hesitant since and that’s where things get into rumour for me. But I’ve seen the CEOs comments myself on federating, it’s not just a rumour I heard.
