i know this whole damn city thinks it needs you

but not as much as i do

[listen-to-the-inner-walrus]

ngl im kinda sick of seeing posts complaining about the dashboard update without mentioning the ways you can complain about the change to @staff that isnt just @ing them

like here are two surveys staff set up where you can bring this shit up to them. give them feedback.

if anyone has any other links or resources, please add them. if you want your voice to be heard, here is how you can. tell them what you dont like and why.

[joanrisu]

I have to separate the links cause my amateur web design brain needs to remove visual ambiguity for UI reasons. - This short survey asks about what social media you use and why. - This longer survey asks about your user experience on Tumblr.

Please take the time to fill them out and please reblog and share the word about these surveys!

A quick Stylus script to make Tumblr's new sidebars a little less crowded and more comfortable

So, that new sidebar, yeah? Sure is a thing. The tumblr devs might change things before it’s fully implemented across the board, and Xkit Rewritten might add some options after the interface moves from testing to permanent – but until they do, here’s a little fix to spread things out a little, so that your tumblr experience doesn’t feel so squished. It results in a dash like this:

which is a little more comfortable than the original, I think.

To install the script, first make sure you install the addon/extension Stylus, if you don’t have it already. And then, well, simply click here, and click “install” to add the style. Enjoy your more wide open spaces!

(Code under the cut for advanced users; comments or suggestions are welcome. You’re also free to modify your own copies for any sidebar width or spacing you prefer.)

THANK YOU but i wish i could use stylus to just put it back to the way it was :(

What layout is better to experience Tumblr with on the site?

Original Layout

New Layout

Voting ended onJul 27, 2023

reblog if possible to see what everyone thinks more accurately. Let's see WHAT folks like actually and feel free to explain your point of view in the tags if possible.

@staff @wip whoever else i should tag

when we say fix the site, we mean shit like PLEASE BAN THE LITERAL NAZIS AND TERF FASCISTS ON THIS SITE, please fix the bugs that have persisted over the years from introductions of new features like the mobile friendly blog layout and sometimes trying to update the banner/header doesn't work. at all, multiple times.

please make the site friendly and INVITING to people with various disabilities by introducing easy to understand, use, and readily available features that would allow them to use the site comfortably without the use of 3rd party services which may be hard to find, if not impossible.

stop being performative and updating your logo in support of queer and/or poc while simultaneously blanking out tags related to the issues they are facing like you did in the past. stop trying to 'fix' what isn't broken like being able to see previous tags easily, which is a widely beloved site feature.

start ACTUALLY listening to your users when they give you feedback on how to improve your site and your conduct as admins/mods/devs, and for the love of all that is holy or unholy please stop trying to imitate twitter by literally STEALING their layout and forcing it on everybody and then ignoring when the literal majority of your site says to change it back. this isn't fixing your site its antagonizing both your veteran AND newer users and proving that you are desperately out of touch with what we want and need. please just fucking stop and change it back.

This is gonna sound nuts but trust me on this one. Robots kissing each other scratches a similar itch as t4t. Robot4robot is so so so real to me

Something something Have you ever been desired because of the way your body is put together instead of despite it ... knowing your personhood isn't conditional in their eyes because you're the same. And you love them and they're like you so you have to love yourself a little more too. Etc

I love that the pandemic actually definitively proved a lot of those "hard" questions for us. Masking up reduced cases of the flu to almost nonexistent numbers and we had zero flu deaths for a time. The welfare and social service and unemployment programs helped keep people living paycheck to paycheck out of poverty, and those stimulus checks some folks keep complaining about actually massively benefitted the common man and the economy. Individual personal travel was so extremely restricted on a global scale that we basically have concrete proof that individual restraint in terms of driving cars or travelling means absolutely nothing by comparison because the mass pollution is coming from the fisheries and the corporations with private jets and container ships. Working from home actually has massive benefits for a company like productivity boosts and better mental health of employees while also saving gas

and we're just. Willingly going back to how everything was before. We were shown how to do things better and the people in charge said "that's nice but we just want to get everything 'back to normal' :)"

[roach-works]

we’re not willingly going back to how everything was before. we are being forced back into it by members of the ruling class who found out that making things better for almost everyone else made them feel bad.

Hello! Disabled person here. Did you know those of us declared legally disabled and collect SSI and benefits are barred from getting married? Yep! I'm also queer so this isn't hate at all, it's a call to action: if you love marriage equality, come help us fight for ours.

There’s power in telling yourself ”no we don’t do that anymore” in response to self destructive urges.
