Considering the genuine number of affected users we created an exhaustive list of Tumblr alternatives in an effort to save them some botheration.

And now, adding to the existing list, we have stumbled upon a couple of more platforms that are also trying to court NSFW/adult/explicit artists and content creators planning to migrate from Tumblr.

It’s a new platform, so you should take a look at their Terms and Conditions as as well Privacy Policy page (both available on explicitr.com and updated on December 05) before signing up.

The second platform – Suffra or Suffranet – isn’t even ready yet. However, here’s what their official website, suffra.net, says:
