Since @tumblr decided that the best way to make money was allow paywalled accounts, on a site they KNOW is 90% transformative fanworks (aka you cannot charge for your fanfic, just ask anyone old enough to have tried w/ Anne Rice), Iβm participating in the #tumblrlogoff today.
The Mikannie Week tumblr is participating in the August 6th #tumblrlogoff#postplusprotest. I'll log back in in a little over 24 hours.
This does NOT affect our twitter, and any tumblr submissions for Day 6 (NFSW / Platonic / Cuddling) will be reblogged on Day 7 Β―\_(γ)_/Β―
@jeffdonof @verizon@Yahoo#tumblrlogoff#phasethree2019 I'm logged off Tumblr for a week to protest the nsfw ban. It is ill-made, flags everything that isn't a dick or boobs, and does nothing to make tumblr safer. I have more porn bots than ever.
Still participating in the #tumblrlogoff ? Good! Apperently they are now trying to work on things that we have been asking for years! But none of it being what we want now.
We won't be distracted. And we won't forget your terrible treatment of the lgbt and sex workers. @tumblr
Day 5 of the #tumblrlogoff ... Still pornbots, still Nazis. But I guess what can you expect when @verizon runs the site? They're not exactly well-known for their quality of care and service to their users.
There were multiple points last night when I instinctively went to open Tumblr on my phone... Had to remove it from my homepage just in case. It's a price I'm willing to pay though for the #tumblrlogoff
Hey @Tumblrsupport@TumblrStaff could you focus on fixing the problem of porn bots, nazis, pedophiles, CP, hate speech, and stop blocking lgbtqia content instead of, you know, just changing the background color of the dash? #tumblrlogoff
I'm logging off of tumblr for a week, because pornbots and nazis are still a problem on the site. The only thing the nsfw ban did was decrease the actual userbase. Tumblr staff needs to address the actual issues with well-thought-out fixes. #tumblrlogoff
staff is doing a lot of dumb and bad things and not actually fixing problems. iβm not the best at explaining the details of it, you can look at the tag #tumblrlogoff or google it, since all my best sources are on tumblr and i canβt look at them now lol x
What say the potential advertisers and investors? What say you? Nazis less offensive than legitimate artists? Interesting stance. #logoff2019#tumblrlogoff
Actually you know what I'm not done. @verizon@tumblr I've been using tumblr for about 5 years now - daily and frequently! I've reported hundreds of spam/porn bots. I've made lasting friendships. I've reported dozens of neonazis. (1/?)
