Controversial opinion time, I don’t hate the idea of Tumblr Live. Like “hey I’m gonna go for a walk who wants to see the new flower buds”/“I’m gonna cook dinner and tell a story so I don’t feel like I’m cooking alone” seem fine to me, even appealing. But the Tiktok-ification and Instagram-ification of everything don’t sit right. And given how typically anonymous and faceless Tumblr is, a jump to “Live” feels pretty unnatural.
