#and how im noticing vtubers are NOT thriving here whatsoever

[minty-cups]

i think the reason why vtubers arent especially thriving on tumblr unlike twitter is tumblr's userbase doesnt... care for idol culture. which is what vtubers are based on reguardless of how much individuals in the vtuber community might protest they arent basing themselves on.

vtubing is just intrinsically tied to some amount of clout chasing, gaining followers, amassing a large audience. which again, doesnt really quite work on tumblr, because of its userbase.

however i think there's a fair chance for vtubers who are also artists, comic creators, illustrators, musicians, game devs, etc.

i think it has to do with the fact that a plain variety gaming vtuber isnt gonna take off bc playing games ultimately adds less to culture than creating art and stories. which is, as far as i understand it, what tumblr is based around
