Please, do share! I'm especially interested in simblers that post beautiful screenshots (with less additional text) and modders/CC providers.

It would be my pleasure! Because there's a link limit, I'll list them by exact blog name that you can add the .tumblr.com part to.

Primarily Mods/CC:
zoeoe-sims - Less active blog, but this is Zoe22- one of the moderators at MTS- and she sometimes posts creations on the blog that aren't hosted anywhere else!
aroundthesims - Sandy! Gigabytes of her content is in my game, so I couldn't leave her out- it's great to keep up with what she's working on. Posts for TS4 as well, but still backports the majority of her creations.
sweetdevil-sims - A lot of age/gender conversions and a familiar face around MTS. Also has unique mods hosted there- my personal favourite are her pies.
philosimy - TS1 enthusiast who remade every part of the original neighbourhoods in TS3.
omedapixel - A creator who doesn't seem to post anywhere else, some very unique creations.
twinsimming - Some great mods + the first person I sort-of collaborated with, I added the geostates to her default replacement trees

Mods and Screenshots:
anitmb - The same Ani as the archive of mods here. She's on a break at the moment, but posts her own creations and screenshots.
danjaley - Very talented historical creator, often converting items to TS3 and posting screenshots.
simsarahsarah - NRaas' very own Sarah_Sims, who has a blog rich with mod documentation and story screenshots even if she's on hiatus for now.
greenplumbboblover - Lyralei, another MTS moderator and longtime contributor and modder. Some of the recent screenshots are NSFW.

Probably missed some, but that's who I could recall in one sitting.
I unfortunately don't know of any existing blogs that are primarily screenshots- and that's right up my alley, so if anyone knows of any or has their own squirrelled away I'd love to know!

And... while I'm here...
carnivalcardinal - Added one set of screenshots just so it's not blank, will be a little while longer until I'm active here. My sims are a little too sentimental to me to post day-to-day gameplay or stories, but there will be more cinematic screenshots.
My main project close to release is a set of default remakes of every basegame hair, so there will be a lot of CAS related misc uploads and progress shots following that. Don't hold your breath on how long it'll take to get all that released, but it's default harvestables and a bunch of food recipes after that.

I totally understand. Honestly, Tumblr looks quite unfamiliar from when I last used it- so I don't know if it's a perfect fit for myself either. But it's a good place to put everything that doesn't quite fit on MTS, so it may not be perfect but it will do for keeping loose ends in check for now. And I've already had some lovely interactions with the community, so ultimately worth it.

Another option is Discord, I heard there are a few sims servers- Simscord and the Creator's Cave I know of, there might be other active ones that are more social focused. I think The Sims Asylum has one too?
I have a personal bias against tech and mod support that can't be archived, so it's not for me. Even if I wasn't too much of a Nervous Subject type person to participate in a chat room to begin with, I couldn't imagine helping out somewhere the answers aren't around for the public to refer to. It might be a better fit for just hanging out and sharing, though.

Maybe a new site will come around, one day. I'm pretty absorbed in meshing and Blender for now, but managing a website is something I'd love to do in the future. Think the Stardew Valley wiki's thoroughness, but for TS1 through TS4. But there are only so many hours in a day
