Please stop changing the site for worse, nobody likes it, we all fucking hate it, and you make it painfully obvious you do not intend for anyone to actually use or benefit from the changes.
We do not want twitter or instagram or tiktok, this is why we are fucking here. If you want to change something so bloody fucking badly, remove the censorship. That's it. Remove the censorship on our bodies, remove the censorship on trans people and people of colour, stop fucking shadow banning everyone who isn't a literal fucking Nazi or a child. You LOVE nazis on your site, they're everywhere as well as bots, and you'll flag and ban or delete REAL people posting nude art, but nooooo the nazi bot accounts with ai generated cp are just keystone to your shithole vision for the site.
If you insist on changing things, at least try to for the better, and quit dicking us around with things you know we'll hate. You tried it recently with fucking up reblogs, you're trying it again most recently with age verification.
THIS HELPS NOBODY!
Age verification is fucking pointless and does not help anybody, it does not make the site more safe. You don't care about safety when you refuse to delete spam accounts and nazi accounts and pedo accounts, no matter how many times they're reported. Because apparently a nipple is so heinous as to require releasing your sensitive information to yet another predatory online data pit, but oh no the magats telling every queer person on here to kill themselves for their imaginary god is actually wonderful and wholesome and more please.
You clearly do not give half a dried shit about us, so what the fuck are you even doing with this nonsense. We don't want it. We keep telling you we don't want it. Just fix what would actually improve the site why is it so difficult. Like you never gave a shit about freedom of speech- hence the heavy censorship on anything queer or body diverse, so it's not like this is a viable argument.
Not that it would be anyway, as fascism is a poison that destroys freedom of speech, or freedom of anything really, so allowing fascists to scream at people on here (whether they're bot accounts or the rare actual magat that got lost here) is a threat, and is completely unnecessary. Again, this is not twitter, and the people who actually use this site Do Not Want It To Be. Let the nazis keep their app until they all scream themselves to death, just keep it the fuck away from here.
You are not protecting anyone by further censoring us. You are making it worse, and removing any last safe spaces we have for expression, when we are already so closed off from each other. If you insist on doing something at least don't make it any worse that it already is. Just do something helpful for fucking once.
