Hmm, might be able to build a Tumblr importer pretty easily, especially since auth is already implemented for cross-posting 🤔

Yes, a Tumblr importer *is* pretty simple with the existing integration.

Got posts pulled in, HTML converted to Markdown, tags and dates parsed, all compiled into Write.as-friendly text. Now just need to add them to the database and create a little importer UI.

I should say, text posts are pulled in right now. Still need to test quote, link, photo, etc. types.

All should be straightforward except for photo types; need to create some stable @snap_as API endpoints for that. Video won't be supported for now.

But I'll probably be able to finish this all by Monday.

@writeas_dev @snap_as would it be possible to separate our reblogs from original posts? Most of the exporters just give you everything, which seems to be what a fair amount of people are looking for, but I’m only really looking to save the stuff *I* wrote

@Satsuma I'll have to check if Tumblr gives out that information, as I'm not sure off the top of my head. But that's good to know!
