#saw some posts about how basically this website is dying for one reason or another#and like usually I’m like hell yeah stick it to the corporations!!!#but one thing a lot of people don’t realize is that the amount of measures it takes to run a business in tech#is really…a lot#and to have 0 marketing involved to generate revenue is even worse#social media is a free service for the sole reason that users are technically a ploy to advertise to#what users here basically did was demand that tumblr provide to us while also remain minimal in their advertising#which basically means they aren’t generating revenue conventionally#blazing posts and purchasing check marks were a temporary problem to a long term solution#if this website requested to be ran the same way AO3 and wiki does users would immediately attack staff#it’s a really shit situation but also tumblr shouldn’t have listened so much to their users#the net worth of tumblr isn’t worth much to investors given all this unless#i should also add that gated communities (like discord) has negatively impacted the amount of users on this site#less users means less interaction with content creators (dominantly artists)#less content creators means less content#u guys get the gist#I’d like to add to question every business related explanation on this website#y’all can complain to hell and back about tumblr but it was one of the lesser evils as far as ads went
