For those seeking out a federated and open alternative to Tumblr, Wafrn is looking extremely promising. It can speak both ActivityPub and AT Protocol, offers a ton of interesting features and customization, and focuses on making an incredibly fun experience.

All I want is to return to Tumblr but without the corpo bullshit. Please oh please let this get off the ground

Did you see Automattic is in the process of rolling out a split from "notes" into likes, reblogs, and comments? 🤢

That might be more related to what they're doing with the WordPress-ActivityPub integration, as a way to work around some of the weird limitations WordPress has for representing notifications and activities other than comments. It's fairly standard for Fediverse stuff.

Oh, I misunderstood, I didn't realize this related to Tumblr specifically...

Still, it might make some of the dev work easier, if they do end up migrating the backend over to WordPress.

Last I heard from Automattic, they were putting the Fediverse conversion on indefinite hiatus.

Is your news saying they're starting up again ?
