What differences does this have over Lemmy?
Edit: I never actually used Tumbler
lemmy is reddit. wafrn is tumblr
Tumblr is a blogging experience that's similar to Twitter, but more focused on the user itself than on the central feed.
Like the title says, it's meant to be a Tumblr-esque experience.
@technomad @gabboman ok so reddit is like a forum. Tumblr is twitter without sucking that much ass. I mean, it does because ceo has gne full cunt mode, but anyway
take alook how it looks

Okay, but why male models?
Tumblr is short-form blogging platform, inspired by tumbleblogs, which were a thing back in the day (another example of Big Tech lifting an idea and then walling it off). So it's like micro-blogging but without the word limit, so you can throw out a thought or a picture or a video, or go into greater detail if the mood took you. On Tumblr people would tend to have a few on different topics.
I much preferred it to Twitter as it felt a lot more free-form but usually focused on a topic.
