Options are few far in between , forcing me to use 1st party app . As much as it sucks it’s the only way i can access tumblr , The website is awful slow even with adblockers
Given all that, it’s a wonder why there’s hardly any 3rd party offerings compared to (twitter|reddit)
honestly at this point i would love a fediverse alternative to tumblr. i’d still want all the blog customization options though
AFAIK, Tumblr is still planning ActivityPub support, which means Tumblr could be thefediverse alternative to Tumblr.
Though that’s opening the same can of worms as Meta in many respects.
i’m not the most well-versed on why someone wouldn’t want to use tumblr but honestly if they support activitypub i’m probably gonna use it a ton more.
I don’t onow about customization, but there are fediverse blog applications: https://joinplu.me/ and https://writefreely.org/ I don’t onow how popular they are.
Wordpress also supports activitypub https://wordpress.org/plugins/activitypub/
