I just feel that the people I watch on Tumblr are all grouped up in their own circles, but I feel somewhat isolated. People seldom interact with me, even when I encourage them to do so, and even the ones I try to interact with. I feel like I’m missing something regarding this network’s dynamics.

You don’t reblog and have made a point in the past of saying you don’t follow people who mainly do.

Reblogging is a central aspect of Tumblr, and you already have a limited pool of interaction because of the following requirements.

It’s a sad state of affairs when content creators have it worse than copycats, aggregators, boot lickers and bandwagon jumpers.

You just described every online social platform ever.

Sadly true.

As an experiment: create a piece of artwork that takes you a solid week.

Upload it. 

Right after it, do one of the following:

Upload a picture of a cat you found on imgur.

Write a generic social justice post that could feasably be about anything.

Vaguer the better. Bonus points if you literally rip it from a furybelle panel.

Watch your original content get vastly outshone by the cat.

The most successful post I’ve ever made on tumblr was of a dancing baby Groot gif. It’s Still getting notes Months later.

My two most successful posts were a joke about Gaurdians of the Galaxy where I used MS paint and pictures of characters who are only similar to the people and a post about bread. They have 100k+ notes. I’m lucky if any of my art posts or normal posts can even break 10 notes
