This is going to be my last post before I log off for the December 17th protest.

In case you aren’t aware of what I’m talking about (even though I’ve reblogged about it a lot), basically a large amount of users are going to be participating in a protest against Tumblr’s new policies on the 17th by logging off the site, and not logging back on for a full 24 hours. As you can see in the image above, the protest will be taking place 12 am EST, but here’s the full list in regards to the exact times the protest is taking place in case you need it:

IMPORTANT ADDITION BY @bitterblueskies - THE CORRECT TIMES ARE 11pm (16th) CENTRAL time and 10pm (16th) MOUNTAIN time.

Here’s what you can do to participate in the protest:

DO:

- Close all open instances you have of tumblr (closing all open tabs of tumblr on your browser and closing any instances you have of the app on your phone)

- Pause your queue or set it for a different time so nothing goes up on your blog during the protest.

- While you can (there’s only roughly 5 hours left- maybe less by the time you read this) make your followers aware of the protest and encourage them to participate, too. The more people we have participating the bigger the impact it will have.

- Be vocal and present on other social medias if you have them, and express how you’re participating in the Log Off protest/how you’re angry with Tumblr’s policies and actions on said social medias. This way it won’t just look like a drop off from social media, it’ll make it very clear to staff that we’re protesting because we’re angry with their new policy and their actions.

DON’T:

- Open the tumblr app or open tumblr on your desktop during the protest.

- Continue to reblog/post during the protest, or have posts go up from your queue during the protest.

- Delete your account/blog. This won’t accomplish anything besides making it hard to come back after the protest is over.

And because a lot of people have been curious about it: NO, STAFF AND THE PEOPLE WHO RUN TUMBLR AREN’T JUST GOING TO DELETE TUMBLR BECAUSE WE CHOSE TO LOG OFF FOR A DAY. Their main interest is money, and making a profit off the website. If they deleted the website, all possible profit they could have continued to make from it would be gone, and they’d lose millions, possibly billions of dollars. They wouldn’t do that. Trust me, they wouldn’t.

{EDIT} THIS IS APPARENTLY ALSO A COMMON QUESTION A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE:

Why logging back on the day after is important:

Logging back on the day after shows that we aren’t just completely ditching them and there’s still a chance for them to improve and make changes, but that day of lost revenue for them (less people on the site to click on and view ads for a day = lost money) still shows that we’re unhappy with what they’ve done. I hope this helped explain it!

I’d also just like to add that, in case you couldn’t already infer, I will not be responding to any messages, answering any asks, reblogging, or posting on the 17th while the protest is underway.

Before I go, I’d just like to say in case I don’t end up coming back on Tumblr (if they refuse to revoke their policies I WILL be moving somewhere else. I’ll let you all know where in case I do):

Gentlemen, it’s been an honor being trash with you.

See y’all on Tuesday.
