These past few months have been interesting, to say the least. So far, 2020 has thrown us curveball after curveball, but it’s also put us in touch with the power of the Tumblr community. Seeing you all come together to support one another through an uncertain time has made our hearts grow three sizes.
The @fandom team is eyeballs-deep in the tags every day, looking at every trend from the serious to the absurd (we see you, Adrichat shippers), and taking note of all the communities constantly springing up on Tumblr. We pulled the tag data from January 1st, 2020 - April 22nd, 2020 and looked at which communities have the highest trending scores - taking into account the amount of searches, original posts, reblogs, and likes made during that time frame.
We usually only share this list during Year in Review, but given the circumstances, we figured now is a good time to discover a new community or 10. Maybe this will spark ideas for new posts! Tag your posts and jump in.
