can’t believe there are people saying cecil isn’t a real tumblr sexyman when he was AT DASHCON and the guy who made she-ra had to sleep on the welcome to night vale team’s hotel room couch because they all got scammed

Imagine walking into an Italian restaurant, looking the other customers in their eyes and saying, “wait, this place serves pasta? What’s pasta? I’ve never even heard of pasta, but it’s probably not good.” 

that is what you sound like when you’re a Tumblr user who has never heard of Cecil Palmer

[ID: screenshot of two Tumblr tags. The first reads, “well of course they haven’t had pasta”, and the second reads “not since the ban on wheat and wheat byproducts.” End ID.]

Hi

Oh hello there ! Tumblr user sleepycoffeecups !!

[samble-moved]

tumblr staff have...

allowed false flags of 100% sfw posts made by transfem users (and blacklisted trans and trans adjacent tags) (edit: '#tgirl' is still blocked as of sept 8th, 2023)

taken away basic accessibility features in an effort to tiktok-ify tumblr

pushed tumblr live, a feature users actively dislike which is mostly unused and overrun by spambots, that also collects all of your data EDIT: staff deleted the blog and post of the user who made the data harvesting expose post (iamdealwithit), as well as rbs. partyjockers and iamdealwithit both had their blogs purged by staff for criticizing them.

allowed ads that can literally kill people via flashing / strobing lights, even if the person had it filtered, despite user complaints, with the ceo even saying people with epilepsy should "just buy ad free" in response to concern over potential death or serious injury from such ads

[NEW!] made tumblr live unsnoozable on mobile, ignoring backlash

[NEW!] a staff member is claiming that people leaving negative feedback is responsible for them being actively suicidal, an attempted guilt trip

STOP GIVING THEM MONEY! stop trying to make crab day or whatever else happen. paying for stuff from the shop is rewarding them for ignoring the userbase continuously and doing things the majority don't want, even if the things they're doing and allowing can cause actual deaths. staff shouldn't be praised and get profit for ignoring their users in exchange for trying to turn tumblr into twitter 2 ft. tiktok. (and now going scorched earth when you criticize them). at this point i don't even care for "staff are people 🥺 be nice" arguments, because even when people are being very polite in feedback, they're perfectly fine ignoring it in exchange for implementing changes nobody wants or asked for (now claiming negative feedback is responsible for them being suicidal), all because new users may like it more (and forget anyone who's used the site for years, apparently).

leave bad reviews. don't buy things from the shop. send feedback, even if they never reply. email them and @ the staff, send asks to the wip blog. don't just blindly buy into "we need to support the site, buy xyz shop product", they don't deserve more money for giving a worse product.

edit: staff have gone scorched earth and removed Every Single RB of the post exposing the data harvesting of live, as well as deleting blogs iamdealwithit and partyjockers for bringing up valid points against staff and their policies (iadwi being the one who made the anti-live post).

Hey 11-year-olds shouldn’t be on tumblr.

And I don’t mean that in like, some kind of exclusivity “you don’t deserve to be here” kind of thing. I mean that there’s a reason tumblr is 13+. It’s really not a good or healthy place for anyone under 13 to be on. I originally joined when I was barely 13 and I wish I had waited. I ran into so much traumatizing and frankly just viscerally disturbing content. I had so many adults that were completely inappropriate towards me, and so many other things that looking back just terrify me.

I’m not trying to baby anybody. I believe that many under-13-year-olds can handle a lot more than we give them credit for. But that doesn’t make tumblr a safe place for y’all to be. People on here are vicious and toxic and y’all don’t deserve to be worrying about all that on top of the other shit that people your age have to deal with.

Please, you have plenty of time. In the meantime, go post about things on chat/blogging sites that are better monitored to be safe for folks your age. Learn about the world in a safer environment and learn what kind of person you want to be. You’re still in such formative years of your life, please take advantage of them and spend them somewhere other than this hellhole. Then, when you’re 13 (or maybe a little older), come back and join tumblr. And make sure you know your boundaries, and that you enforce them.

btw I’ve found these stretches from the WAK blog very helpful when knitting a lot:

Plus make sure to take breaks regularly - and stop if anything starts to hurt!

especially with gift knitting I know it can be tempting to push through it for a deadline, but it’s really not worth causing long term injury. (And anyone knit-worthy should be understanding of that, imho.) Stay well :)

Also good for artists drawing with pencils/on a tablet/with a pen!

THis news is better than gay sex

[buryymeinblack]

wait. this is hilarious. They were contractually obligated to keep it, so when it was universally hated, they added an option to completely erase it from the dashboard without getting in trouble for removing it ...... "snooze tumblr live" is funnier than we thought

[buryymeinblack]

Tumblr is downscaling after failing to ‘turn around’ the site

“Our previous approach wasn’t working.”

Guys literally all of this is good news ,..they're gonna be changing their approach to everything and focusing more on core functionality. which we all know this site needs. And they're not downscaling any part of the trust & safety team so moderation should .. at least not be getting any worse
