The censure-ship of the site is…

The censure-ship of the site is atrocious and is just another example of the staff being incompetent. The coding for the site is terrible, every update ever implemented is rushed and terrible made causing the site to be unusable every time it updates. The staff doesn't care about it's users, and will screw you over for a penny is they could, they only care about money. The users had been reporting the porn-bots,pedophilia and Nazi blogs, but the staff only did anything once apple took their app down and cutting into their profit. Instead of actually fixing the problem, they implemented a site wide NSFW ban, which hasn't helped the pedophile problem at all, and has only harmed artist and LGBT bloggers

Unreasonable

Unreasonable. The fact that you can search the term "Nazi" or "Nazism" and not "Tits" or "Boobs" is concerning. I understand that it's trying to censor stuff from young children etc. however the way they go about censoring things is absolutely horrible and sexist. "Female Presenting Nipples" are censored. On top of that, what they decide to remove from public eye isn't even accessible by private eye- meaning, those of us who are adults can't even view the post that is labeled "adult material".

Too much Censorship

Too much Censorship. And not even well executed censorship at that.Nazis and pornbots are everywhere.Artists' artwork and sometimes entire blog are being flagged and removed from view.Even entirely SFW blogs are being shadowbanned.A good alternative to Tumblr can't happen soon enough.

Wish I could give Zero Stars

Wish I could give Zero Stars. Tumblr used to be a site that I loved to go on - ever since Verizon took over ? Plagued.

Hanlon's Razor: Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity

While a good website, the treatment of its userbase is abysmal. For those not aware of the NSFW purge, this is what happened:1. On the 3rd of December, 2018, staff announce that in two weeks all NSFW images, previously welcomed and even encouraged, would be removed from blogs. This would be done via an automated tool. 2. Users scramble to back up their blogs and download the contents of their favourite blogs. Multiple blogs are deleted, including many hosting entirely SFW content; others are made invisible. Thousands of posts are flagged as containing adult content, most of which are completely innocent (for instance, a picture of a wall). The only way to unflag them is to scroll down your blog and manually appeal every single one. Staff tumblr and twitter accounts are silent.3. On December 17th, the ban rolls out. All content flagged as "adult" is hidden from view, even from the user who posted it. No notification system exists. The "appeal" button is removed, and the only way to have your ban removed is to contact Support with the links of the affected posts. Blogs with too many flagged posts run the risk of being banned.Even if you agree with the ban, the sheer incompetence with which it was carried out is hard to fathom. Do not trust this site.

Greedy Inconsiderate Mice

Verizon, who owns both Yahoo and Tumblr decided to take an action without surveying their users, with a blanket statement that functionally a lie about why they were doing so in an attempt to increase ads because of their corporate greed. I'd give them 0 stars if i could
