tumblr users: hey we don't want twitter users migrating here :/
tumblr: don't worry i got you *fuckign crashes*
it took 25 seconds for this to load so i could reblog. the website is having a volatile reaction to the sudden influx of new users. we are witnessing a hostile defense mechanism.
a super serious mission to slay the beast!
GIRLS 🎀💅👯♀️🤮have been BANNED 🚫🚫from [tumblr] DOT COM 🤣🤣. This is a BOYS 👹🚙👺💁♂️ only ZONE 😈💩!!!!
ok just did some tests with a friend when tagging/untagging posts (for IOS app users)
1- if your og post has one of the banned tags it won’t show up on the dash
2- if reblogged (while the banned tag is contained in the og post) the reblogs won’t show up either
3- if a reblog contains a banned tag, that reblog won’t show up but doesn’t affect the og post’s visibility
4- if the banned tag is removed from the og post it reinstates the reblogs as well (if they don’t contain banned tags)
hope this helps! ✌️
What's going on with tumblr? I'm confused as to what exactly everybody is screaming about.
Okay so basically (from my understanding) Apple decided that it doesn't want anything that could be considered 'mature' content (one of the reasons for the porn purge too). So they say to tumblr "hey make this more family friendly or we're taking your app off our store" which is really just them saying they can't advertise on apps that have nsfw content and want money. So tumblr, wanting to keep their app on the app store, set up a ban on certain words (you can find that here) But this only affects iOS users, so if you have an Android or you're on a computer browser (besides safari I believe) then the ban doesn't affect you. However anything you post that has one of those words still won't show up for iOS users.
Another good post explaining it here
ALSO in the official update from tumblr (which you can read here) they state
"We understand that, for some of you, these changes may be very frustrating – we understand that frustration and we are sorry for any disruption that these changes may cause. Please know that on the near horizon there will be meaningful developments that will overhaul how you choose to access sensitive content safely on Tumblr – whether visiting us on mobile, mobile web or through our website."
Of course, this could just be them trying to molify us, but it could also mean that they're going to implement a feature where you have to confirm to being over a certain age to see sensitive content.

i’ve been on tumblr since 2012 and became a content creator in 2014/5, so i’ve been here for years and I can confirm that: people barely reblog posts now and it’s becoming an issue. yes content creators make stuff mostly for them, but if we post them it’s so people can see and enjoy it. and this happens when you hit “reblog”
the likes/reblogs ratios is a big disaster. when I first started, the reblogs were like 70% of a post with 30% of likes. now it’s 10% reblogs and 90% likes. likes are good, don’t get me wrong, but they don’t give us visibility.
reblogging = sharing posts to your followers. it’s easy and quick
WHY YOU SHOULD REBLOG
WHY YOU SHOULD SUPPORT CONTENT CREATORS
i’m not pointing a gun to your face screaming “REBLOG”, i’m just telling you that if you like a post, you should think about reblogging it so your followers can see it and you’ll make one person happy <3

Lazy girl supremacy i love laying down
FedEx: shits on my box, stomps on my box, kicks it, dumps gasoline on it, throws one of my chickens into the back of the van UPS: whispers at my front door “is anyone home” as quietly as possible before leaving a “we missed you!” note, tries to gaslight me into thinking my address doesn’t exist USPS: sets my package down gently where it’s not visible from the road, knocks on the door and kisses me directly on the mouth
