hi. go buy esims for gaza. go preorder a kufiya from hirbawi. buy insulin for palestinian diabetics who need that help. if you live in the states use this to email your reps (this takes maybe 5 seconds to do). check out this massive list of resources where you can educate yourself in a meaningful and actionable way even if you don't have the financial means right now. from the river to the sea palestine will be free. 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

reblog for sample size ofc

I need this post to break containment I need normies to weigh in

i do love fucked up eye imagery. too many eyes where they shouldn’t be. no eyes. Things that are not eyes in place of eyes. it is like stained glass. to Me

“oh they’re not taking away chronological dashboard, well everything’s okay then” they also said in the post they’re making reblogs collapsed (like comments on twitter) so you won’t see the full conversation in a post. they also won’t get rid of tumblr live despite it being an annoying and cancerous data-miner that isn’t legal in much of the world. they won’t even let you opt out of tumblr live for more than seven days. they implemented a terrible photo viewer that mimics tiktok and makes it so you can’t zoom in on images. they took away the ability to view prev tags. they’re making it so you have to sign in with your email to view almost any thing on tumblr. they’ve already made it so you have to sign in to send asks, even on anon. they’re slowly phasing out custom blog themes.

the things that make tumblr at all usable and favored by us– the older web blog features, the anonymity– that is still being taken away. it HAS been being taken away for some time now. i am urging you people to reveiwbomb the tumblr app. force them to acknowledge that users do not like these changes.

Good news! You can let Tumblr Staff know what you think about every version of Tumblr in a way that they might listen to! Here is a long survey from a blog associated with Staff and here is a short survey from the same blog. The blog, although full of surveys, does not allow reblogs. However, I took the long survey and later they improved one thing I complained about, so there is a chance more people complaining about changes could halt their enshittification. I cannot retake the surveys, so I must ask you all to send feedback where I cannot.

i fuckin love a survey I tell you what

So @photomatt (aka the guy who runs the company that owns Tumblr) is doing a livestream right now, taking questions from users.

A user with epilepsy asked if something could be done to make sure that ads aren’t vibrant or strobing, because that’s a seizure risk.

Matt made some vague noises about looking into it, kind of mumbling and then full voice immediately said “you should maybe buy the no ads upgrade, or get someone to gift it to you.”

He suggested the user pay for basic accessibility, to make sure the site doesn’t give them seizures.

I shouldn’t need to explain why this is very very bad, especially in conjunction with that last post from @staff.

Tumblr is apparently running a $30,000,000 deficit, and reversing that is the clear priority of the ownership right now. The interests of users aren’t going to be important until or unless they find a way to monetize us.

"If stuff was just handed to me I'd have no motivation to do anything! That's human nature!" No, babe, that's depression. Psychologically healthy people are still motivated to do things even when their survival isn't being actively threatened.
