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
I think there are two reasons:
- Tumblr isn’t nearly as popular as it was 8 or 10 years ago
- Tumblr isn’t, generally speaking, a well known site for the kinds of tech focused people that would be building such applications. Tumblr has a focus more towards sharing images (even to the extent of screenshotting twitter posts rather than linking the post itself), and generally speaking (again) more tech focused people tend to prefer sites with more generic content, such as lemmy/kbin/reddit where you can have images, links, and text discussions.
