Once again, Tumblr manages to succeed via just being honest with their users.
I made a post back around April fool's about the crabs being so popular because the joke was that every other website tries to trick you into clicking things so they can make money from your clicks and what if instead a website just asked "please click this revenue generating crab. It is there to generate revenue. In return you will have clicked on a crab. Nothing more." And the answer to that question was "people will frantically click on that crab. They don't hate the idea of the website getting money, they hate the idea of being profited on against their will".
So Tumblr implemented actual revenue crabs. "For this much money you can fill your or someone else's dash with virtual crabs. This will have the effect of there being crabs on their screen."
And people will buy those crabs. Because yes you're spending money on something stupid and useless but it's being sold to you as "hey you want something stupid and useless?", which is a nice change of pace from every other site trying to make itself out to be something more than what it is.
Twitter is floundering with the checkmark system because it's being sold as "confirm that you are someone important and who you say you are is true", which it isn't at all right now because anyone can buy one. You're buying a useless checkmark that only says that YOU think you're important. Or, more often than not right now, you are intending to trick other people into thinking you're someone you're not.
Meanwhile, Tumblr just said "Consider this double check mark. It does nothing. You will be marking yourself as someone who paid money for a meaningless checkmark and sometimes it will randomly turn into a bunch of crabs, making the site harder to use". And the userbase is like "Well sure, that sounds delightful."
The point is, despite what all the marketing and advertising people have tried to say, painting trash gold and trying to pass it off as something better is almost never as effective as just saying "hey you want this trash?"
Why yes, in fact, I do.

hi so i watched bpwf yesterday and here’s some of main random thoughts about it:
- angela bassett’s arms stole the film can she pls gimme a headlock; and
- riri’s board at the front of her door having “collatz conjecture” got my lil nerd ass screaming
No, it's not cringy it's fucking genius.
Tumblr staff understands its fucking userbase in a way Elon Musk will never understand Twitter.
Beating a dead horse into the ground is a supernatural reference.
Oh my god.
It's so fucking good.
This is just good.
This is speaking the language fluently.
Twitter is not fucking prepared.
I love and hate you all.
Be happy and DIE.
was looking up 50s fashion for writing reasons and i CANNOT get over the outfits these girls are rocking
- This is bobby soxer fashion that originated in the 1940s, not 50s. Specifically, this 2016 Tumblr post attributes this photo to Life magazine in 1947
- The style was not considered masculine in its time (for commenters remarking on crossdressing laws); pants had been mainstream women’s fashion since the 30s and especially during WWII due to women in factory work. This was an extremely popular style associated with fans of popular music performers like Frank Sinatra. It was a teenage style in particular; the 40s saw the number of girls attending secondary school rise substantially, as did the number of teens with disposable incomes.
It’s fascinating to me that people under 30 are looking at very trendy look today and seeing gender nonconformity. It says more about what we consider “feminine” clothing to be today (Revealing? Low necklines? Translucent? Form-fitting? Curve-enhancing?) than the image itself.
the funny thing of me contemplating to come back here is that after years i still never finished reorganizing my tags and now i plan to reorganize them ALL again because i wanna use lui instead aha .
since we're all talking abt newcomers and stuff, when did you guys first join tumblr
for me it was back in like 2014 (i think) when i was in my twenty one pilots phase and didnt know how tumblr worked but i saw funny memes of it on facebook
i then tried to make a #inspirational quotes from animes and cartoons account where i just yoinked stuff from google images lmfao
funny bow i migrated from tumblr to twitter but now twitter's downfall thanks to one man could happen any moment so maybe its time i do go back here
coming back from the dead just to say i found out the ssum is already out and man i have so many questions... i played the beta before so i already knew what to expect but why is there suddenly lab participant signings??? alien pets to take care of ????? what ? ? ? ? ? these are all... somehow pleasantly surprising
