After December 17th, Tumblr no longer allows adult content. To help out other Tumblr refugees, I've put together a big list of alternatives (see below). Everyone can vote for their favorites and the results are sorted in order:)
How to Backup your Tumblr - this post on ErosBlog has a great guide on how to backup your Tumblr. It involves using a free tool to download your posts and images.

If there's a Tumblr alternative that's missing from the lists, please leave a comment below and i'll add it to the voting section.
Mastodon
Mastadon seems like a tumblr alternative with a lot of potential. It's kinda like Reddit, but instead of joining different forums you join different social networks or "instances" within the Mastadon "federation".
Mastodon isn't owned by any one person either. There's no ads, and the person creating it has the goal of revolutionizing social networking. The mods of each of the social networks within Mastodon set the rules.
Some 18+ instances to try:
- Humblr.social
- kinky.business - For the kink community.
- monsterpit.net - For monsters and monster fans, specifically 18+
- the.resize.club - For specific kinds of kinks, like macro, micro, hyper, muscle, inflation, expansion, and similar.
- yiff.life - LGBTQIA+, QUEER, TRANS, FURRY
- awoo.space
- glitch.social
- waterfall.social
- switter.at (for sex-workers)
- kinkbomb.com
- Kinkrebel.com
- fetbox.co.uk

What about Sharesome ?
Looks awesome, adding it to the list now!
I checked it, and it seems to be more directed towards sex workers and their customers than towards the “general public”.
newtumbl.com. Save yourself the search and go here.
I’m putting together a simple site as a free posting site that is to exercise our freedoms
https://xefig.com
I just heard about “swarmr.com”. It’s more like a rip off tumblr and It needs some improvements, but nsfw content is allowed there.
Nice one, added it to the list.
bdsmlr. This is a tumblr clone explicitly created for adult content.
Yeah, already workin on migrating my content to bdsmlr.com.
No mobile app yet, but I’m sure they’re workin on it.
Bdsmlr.com is a BDSM themed Tumblr clone, little rough around the edges but getting better. Most of my followers seem to be going there.
For a specific, art-centric Mastodon server, https://artalley.porn/about seems really promising.
Xnxx.com
Some missing ones:
Adultnode.com
BDSMlr.com (focus on BDSM, so maybe not the best platform for all porn)
Cumblr.com (not launched yet)
Humblr.social (it’s a mastadon instance)
Nibblebit.com
What about http://www.bdsmlr.com?
They seem to work pretty hard and growin fast these days..
I feel like bdsmlr.com has completely won the game. These other alternatives are similar to Tumblr in that it was … never really quite right for pr0n. It was like, pr0n found Tumblr, and it just silently worked together. These listed sites are all the same. Mastodon has no central search or even seems built for the task, so it’s useless. Fetlife has no photos, it’s less than useless. Newgrounds was for 1998 memes, what’s that even doing here? Also tried Gab, but it made no sense. I finally found bdsmlr.com to be most apt, well laid out, fully searchable and functional, just needs more content.
what about tapblr.com ?
There’s Hentaikku,
https://www.hentaikku.com/
That returns invalid captcha constantly on the signup form.
If you’re talking about hentaikku, it might be asking for a person invite who’s already in-site.
My user is NicoNii if you need one.
waterfall.social
Would you consider adding cumblr.xxx to the list?
Thanks for taking an interest in the relocation woes of Tumblr NSFW content.
Our company is assembling a faithful replacement site at newtumbl.com with the key facilities and capabilities of Tumblr, which should please anyone seeking a new home. Our experience in designing large games servers means we know how to build software which will operate well at scale.
We will be following up with additional daily news on the progress as the entire site comes up. Browsing, for example will go active this Thursday, we believe. By 12/21 or so we will have a ‘good enough’ site to allow folks to unpack their archives and launch their blogs.
Could you add Newtumbl.com to your list?
Motherless.com Added a new feature to their site called “Tumbling Blogs”
Let’s hope 2mblr.com looks good when ready in January – I’ve transferred my blogs there.
switter.at (for sex-workers)
kinkbomb.com
Kinkrebel.com
fetbox.co.uk
don’t miss https://iloopit.net – NSFW gif makers community
Are there any alternatives with an App, so I cam message posts to my wife?
Hey , check out Newtumbl – getting some good traction now, just 3 days after enabling text and photo posts. Lots of new registered users, getting on for 10,000 and many uploads. Video posts coming soon. Works like Tumblr, but with some better features.
stumbled on this site, looks great…
https://www.explicitr.com/
You went to tumblr.com, more specifically, to the tumblr of your choice, and there was content. No sign in. No sign up. No fees. No costs (at least not to view the content – hosting on the other hand – granted).
Every site that has a sign up, a fee, a border entry to content, isn’t Tumblr.
Maybe that was THE problem with Tumblr. Nonetheless. That’s what helped make Tumblr popular – the content, and the ease of access.
For me, from what I’ve seen: 4Chan, reddit, and iloopit come closest to what Tumblr was. A lot of others are trying to do what Tumblr never succeeded at – monetizing their service / content.
I wish the others luck in that regard. I understand why they would want to.
But, my take, is free, unfettered access.
Would you add Mamby.com? It accepts porn and even pays for uploading posts!
Hey,
http://www.lifeout.com
Is another choice and is a good site for just the men out there, but its not for all the guys tho, even tho all are welcome, the site im referring to is geared more toward the m4m varriety, ya know, dudes into other dudes kind of thing, lol. Its lil different than tumblr in format but its cool. Its been aroubd a while tho for sone reason is Not well known and def. not as well known as it should be, cuz for what it offers and for what is as well as the potential to what all it can be/grow to become, its a pretty great site thats at least well worth checking out, ive been on for years and enjoy it but idk maybe not work for all but def worth putti g out there has great features and varriety of options with full featured options tho can be bit tricky to do for those less tech inclined but info etc is there to read up on how to do etc. but when figured out it allows you to choose layout for ur own page choise colors sizes odmf fonts and txts and add images etc etc. so its pretty neat and neater even for those with lil more know tech how, but overall you can to do some cool things to user profile pages allowing you to edit and create and design customizable and personalisable pf pages and backgrounds etc to make youre page truly youre own about you What you like etc. also many other great options a d features too and oh yeah its also free site too! Not only that its a site pretty much made for the cery idea of adult, xxx, nude, nsfw content, allowing full nsfw content (i.e. allows pics, vids, gifs, etc.) users can posts asmany pics and vids of selves as they want pretty much and put then into individual folders on their pf and can keep them all or jys the ones they want viewable to everyone and others only to feiends or only on unlock per individual level, and so on, its not quite same as tumblr as its geared more towards a social aspect in ways i actually like to think of it as kind of like a more xrtd & naughty adult only nsfw version of fb, only way better (& with nudity so yeah sorta naked fb ish lol) pretty eary to use and good for many things great welcoming community and vibe etc, alot or most content is original/made by & posted by users but there is still sections in searchable ares of site for all kinds of content in pic or vid form etc and catagories on the vids section and such with the usual kids of porn from studios and such but anyhow, i really do recommend at least taking a look its woth checking out, i mean really, i could go on about all the rest as its got many other great features, thst ill leave to discover yourselves, so check it out you might like it, might not, it may not be for evone, but worth look to find that out has lots to offer overall so give it try…
http://www.lifeout.com
There’s a huge community growing over at newTumbl (www.newtumbl.com). Can you please add to this list?
