Bring back the porn
They quietly have. Most of the restrictions have been rolled back
Porn is back yes but they are still pretty strict. If they catch you posting porn, you’re banned. If your post has a nipple poking up on a shirt, that post gets banned. If the clothes are too tight, that post gets banned. If you post too many posts that are banned per above criteria, your account is banned.

My comment was incomplete. While tumblr does a great job of stifling the average user’s ability to POST anything “sexy”, they seem to have zero ability to manage porn bots. I believe they are intentionally letting porn pots run free in order to sustain user base. Porn bots jumped again after they brought out new community standards last fall or early this year.
If you’re just a porn consumer, it’s fine. If you want to post porn and you know how to evade tumblr’s detection schemes, it’s great for you.

I miss Tumblr. Yes, Tumblr still exists, but the Tumblr I miss does not. This stuff makes me wonder if we’ll see an ActivityPub Tumblr-clone at some point, like Lemmy/Kbin to Reddit, Mastodon to Twitter and PeerTube to YouTube.
Be the change you want to see
I believe Misskey/Calckey are meant to be exactly this, but I haven’t tried them yet.
Tumblr is adding activitypub support, hopefully this year.
It would be so great if all these big “social media” companies just went out of business.
Tumblr’s administration is hot garbage. I don’t feel bad for them, and neither should you.
Tumblr is great but the the last person who understood the user base was David Karp.
Also Tumblr without Xkit is just lunacy
I guess I forgot Tumblr was still a thing.
By the way, Matt Mullenweg has a poll going on if he should step down LUL! https://www.tumblr.com/mattmullenwegceo/722564072820883456/should-i-step-down-as-head-of-tumblr-i-will-abide
“Tumblr CEO announces he’s really, really bad at his job.”
I surprised tumblr still exists honestly
The users are having a ‘Crab day’ where everyone gives each other crabs to try and help boost the finances. Will be interesting to see if it has an impact
I wonder who could have foreseen the porn ban leading to this… Oh, wait.
unpopular opinion i kinda liked tumblr better after the cumbrains left
