#at least neocities is my backup in case it happens

Seriously

I' ve only been here for 5 months and now there's rumors that Tumblr is going to shut down in the future!?! Just great! Something for me to panic at 3-4am before I'm supposed to get my booster shot this morning! Just fantastic!

Anyways, when that happened, I'll just go back to Reddit. Yes Reddit. I've returned to that site after abandoning when the API blackout happened. But I'm only going on the browser version because there is an app called, "Sink It For Reddit", where it uses features from one of the depared 3rd party app, Apollo and it only works on the browser. But like when I was on Reddit, I won't comment or post due to anxiety and fear of getting bullied for the stuff I post.

I have Mastodon, which I rarely posted and only follow the hashtags. Still confused how the federation works. There's Instagram, where I made a secondary account, a few months back just to like fanart and be in the fandom in order to separate from my primary account (which I have mostly abandoned at this point).

Then there's Neocities, which I'm still on and there's even people who liked my site due to being cute! It's been a bit since I linked my site here, so I'll post it here incase anyone wants to see what I have been up to.

Even if the rumors are true, I will still be on Tumblr until its' dying days. I hope it's not true and things works out for the @staff. If not, then I hope that the skeleton crew might me the hellsite better.

Until then, enjoys my reblogs and my occasion posts.

Due to the forums being down I have to resort to announcing stuff through the original blog.

Currently TDC and all of its services (booru, forums, etc) are down and it's likely that the server TDC runs on has been turned off. Whether this is permanent or not I don't know. I'm simply the guy who codes and manages the site, not the one who hosts it or pays for the domain.

Recently I also received an email that the domain had been given to me and I could claim it(?). I chose not to do so because I can't really afford it and even if I could where would I host the site from? My pc isn't made for that. And I can't think of any trustable US-based website hosts.

If you're wondering: the person responsible for hosting TDC has been absent for a few days and I'm not exactly sure if he's in the right state of mind right now. I've admittedly been a bit concerned these past few days. But since this is not the first time something like this has happened I'm at least hopeful that things will be fine.

Despite all this I still have backups of the entire site, so in a worst case scenario I could bring back TDC under Neocities (which, as good as it is, can only host static sites). But at the cost of not having a forum or a booru.
