Tumblr needs to be more user friendly tbh. It's awful to navigate on my phone. But sure bring back the porn but people have migrated to Twitter tbf.

Yeah, that's what got me to stop checking Tumblr. That and the extremely long gif posts that barely loaded.

i think i saw a post the other day explaining how asks used to get eaten and someone was like, really?? this was a thing?? and the response was: "how do you think it got the name 'hellsite'" lmao

i mean, the search functionpretty much doesn't fucking work still

[sluttyroyals]

lmao it never left. love the theory that they’re doing it to attract fleeing twitter users tho

v true but not being able to just check a tag for something specific made it so much harder to find stuff. I had to rely on my porn blog to sort of "backtrack" and try to find new active ones.

I think it's been back for a while. I had a bunch of posts flagged just for photos that featured cleavage when the 2018 ban happened, and now I regularly see sexy photos and gifs on my dash again and can't remember the last time one of my posts was flagged

They introduced community labels a few months ago and it allowed people to post more, it’s weird though because what they’re considering mature varies widely

i post a lot of fashion stuff and only a few pics with visible boobs/nips got flagged. most go through

[analievelyn]

So nude pics are ok but not explicit vids?

What's the exact line?

[erin805]

They said any photos depicting “explicit sexual acts” will be pulled but nudity in general won’t 🤷🏻‍♀️

[analievelyn]

Ty!

[erin805]

You’re welcome ❤️
