Okay, I take it back - earlier this year I moved my blog to Tumblr because I found the feature-bloat in Wordpress a bit of a ball-ache. Tumblr's lightweight feature-set is great for quick, impulsive post-writing, which actually encouraged me to write more.
But great UX is not everything.
Performance and delivery has to count for something, and their constant server problems meant that my site was down more than it was up. I lost numerous posts to server failures and who knows how much traffic over the months, so I've switched my blog back to Wordpress.
It may have a wealth of features I'll never get around to using, but at least I can take responsibility for reliable hosting myself, and never have to see that "We're Sorry" page again!
Good riddance Tumblr - it was fun while it lasted!
