So I've seen the tumblr blackout post as well as a bunch of people pointing out that it's not the best idea (tumblr doesn't work like reddit so everyone leaving for a while won't actually be that effective and starting during disability month means we're cutting off a ton of disabled people from talking to people/potentially fundraising during disability pride month) But I don't think I've seen people attempt to organize a different plan so here's this:
Lets all be as annoying as fuck
Starting June 30th and extending into disability pride month we should turn off/unsubscribe from any tumblr prime(?), use adblockers, avoid interacting with any promotions they're making and algorithmic content and send blogs like @staff and @wip a ton of shit
If a ton of users each take a minute a day to send a few asks to different staff blogs, reply/reblog posts with complaints, and make posts @ing some staff blogs I believe we can make a huge flood and completely overwhelm them with the fact that we want things to change, we don't have to individually spam them, everyone can just do a little bit.
...To be honest I don't think this post will make it very far and im not the most confident in this specific plan, but I want to get the idea out there, I think we should definitely be doing something to try and take the site back and make sure they don't keep making things worse, we need to let them know that we won't put up with them ignoring us. This site is for the users and we will take it back.
