Reblogs and replies got disabled, but this is still a big problem

Reblog while you still can.

Update Nov 30:

This is still happening

tags are still being censored. Whenever a new Palestine related tag appears, it gets to the top of trending for a few hours before getting taken down.

Here is the current number 2 on trending;

1.3k members. 546 posts today.

Now look at Palestine tags:

These are similar if not more popular, yet they don't show up in the top 5, or even the "tags we care about" section. Not to mention that the Palestine posts I see are from reblogs, not from me following the tags.

a second time?

A SECOND TIME??????

tumblr staff REALLY do NOT want this comic on this site despite it including NOTHING that could be deemed inappropriate, especially when compared to to the usual shit they let pass

if i can't even have this completely safe for work comic on my blog, i don't even wanna be on this site anymore. but i guess that's exactly what they want, that's why they recently went on a trans woman banning spree, not even bothering to give reasons for some, let alone good reasons

why don't you just fucking ban me while you're at it? you've already proven you can do that without warning nor any given reason

By the way, @staff is changing the video player and photo viewer on the mobile app to the one from Tumblr TV. As a result, they have made the abhorrent decision to remove an important accessibility feature in order to TikTok-ifying Tumblr. You can no longer zoom in on photos. Or so I thought. Because the visually impaired are now second-class users to the Tumblr Staff, they just decided to make it harder to zoom in on photos.

So, for all of you who, like me, find the pinch-to-zoom feature on Tumblr invaluable to read and view photos, you now have to:

Tap the Photo > Tap the “more” button in the description > tap the photo again

This will open the old photo viewer (for now, anyway) which was formerly one tap away. It will grant you all the former features of the old photo viewer, including the ability to zoom in.

EDIT: if you’re seeing this on your For You Dash or some other non-reblogged method you will see this edit. Before reblogging and commenting on this, there is addition information in the replies. I have replies disabled, so I am the only person who can add them. I’ve added addition info, as well as an update. Please read them. TLDR: many others, and myself, are now seeing it’s fixed. Many others are not. It may be a roll-out fix from the back-end. Be patient and wait to see if it’ll make its way to you.

Tumblr reblog chains are in danger.

It seems that the staff is actually going to go forward with their decision to remove reblog chains, where reblogs will basically work like regular comments on other websites.

This doesn't just make the site completely unusable, it removes the soul of the community that has managed to build up here over the years, and that I'm so happy to have recently joined.

It makes impossible the creation of great posts where many people build up a single thing, until it is a gem of expressed human creativity.

There will be no more world heritage posts, no more messing around with your mutuals, no posts worth remembering.

There will be no more Tumblr, and the Tikblr or TumbTube or whatever monstrosity is born from its corpse will soon die, as is probably the best. And then there will never be another place like this on the internet, no place anymore to run to, no more fun, no more community.

I recommend a simple course of action. When these changes get imposed upon us, stop using Tumblr. Get your mutuals' discords, your favourite artists' websites, and leave. If the Tumblr we have once known returns, we well too. If not, better let it die quickly than suffer a long and painful decline.

I beg you to reblog this, for the more people see it, the higher chanses are for this to work.

And add something, so we can show them what Tumblr is really for.

Tumblr: Removes a transfem's fully clothed transition timeline for being sexually explicit

Also Tumblr:

[jam-n-jay]

trans woman: staff can suck my dick I hope photomatt chokes on his spaghetti

staff: ❌ BANNED!!

TERF: I hope all m*le gr**mers are executed for real and have all their disgusting degeneracy filled houses burned down in real life real life anyway here's the address of a trans woman a picture of her house and some free nudes for good measure

staff: ✅ no issues here!

[catgirl-kaiju]

reminder that i have also had nonsexual photos of me tagged as explict and sexual. i rarely post even any nudity and when i do, i put them on a side blog and voluntarily put community labels and filterable tags on them. any time i post an appeal, it never gets answered. i'm not even able to appeal community labels on those photos any more, and it breaks my heart because those are some of my favorite photos of myself. i've straight-up stopped posting selfies on here partly bc i've not taken many that i enjoy enough to share recently, but also because it's just too much of a hastle.

i've had this same blog continuously since 2012, since before i came out. over a decade now. if i lost it, i would be devastated. i also have meticulously curated side blogs for all of my art and comics, and my headmates also have their own blogs under this account. all of that would be lost.

predestrogen did not deserve this, she did nothing to violate tos. and it very easily could have been me or any other transfem person on here.

i've met friends and lovers on here. my art has found an audience on here. i've been able to crowdsource financial help on here when i've been at my lowest. i don't know if i would still be around if this website wasn't available to me. the thought of some staff member just erasing my presence from here is legitimately terrifying to me.

i'll repost every sfw image i've ever gotten a community label slapped on here and i fucking dare staff to do it again. i fucking dare you.

i'm lucky that it's not very many, but it's still true that none of these are mature content. none of these are images a cis woman would get flagged for. fuck you @staff for your blatant transmisogyny. fuck you for never taking my harassment reports seriously. fuck you for letting terfs and nazis just keep on existing here no matter how many times they're reported for violating tos.

They killed Nebby, the bastards!

As if it wasn't bad enough taking out a transwoman for no reason, they take out any others who support her, using that support as a reason.

Anyway, 🚗🔨💥

1 hour before hrt > 2.5 years on hrt

hammers & exploding cars or something like that

[rainoftime3]

Just a reminder that we LGBTQ+ folks wouldn’t have rights without trans ladies with bricks.

Can you tell where I stand?

[lesbi-nyan]

here's another timeline pic cause i hate staff and matt so much. and look im wearing red in both. woag ~nya

[plantify]

You ain't never gonna see me buying tumblr badges cause there's no way I'll support a platform (at least not directly, our mere presence here is support to them) that has directly tried to silence the voices of those who speak out against genocide, by ensuring that those posts never reach trending/front page status

[0w0tsuki]

Hey so looks like I'm being targeted for reports. Tumblr has removed my header image which was this bte

This the pic that was removed by the way. The Kids Next Door Girl Gun.

Hey moots and followers! If you have any respect or support for trans women and their allies, you should block (and report if you can) the tumblr ceo @/photomatt.
