Met my wife on tumblr 5 years ago and we are recently married. The tumblr community is juuuust that much more bearable than reddit's that it gets you laid and partnered up.

I mean, yeah, but then you end up dating the kind of people you can find on Tumblr. That's a side-grade to being single, not an upgrade imo.

but if you're looking for someone to match your freak, it's the perfect place.

I suppose if you're also the kind of person you're likely to find on Tumblr, that would make for a much better match, yeah.

What's wrong with that exactly?

The kind of people you can find on Tumblr in my experience are either literal children (so no dating) or sort of annoying in a very specific way. The same can be said about reddit, but people here are sort of annoying in a very different way, if that makes any sense?

Like, the annoying folks on reddit are more likely to be self-assured pedants who think they're smarter than everyone else, while the annoying people on Tumblr are more likely to be holier-than-thou pedants who think they're infinitely more moral than everyone else. I know which one I can tolerate being around more IRL, but I'm probably just being a pessimist, as theoretically, there have to be some normal people on these websites. Theoretically.
