tumblr developers cranking it into overdrive to make sure one of the few unique and usable social media sites remaining becomes a half-formed failed homunculus clone of tiktok like every other fucking website

does every1 know about how every font in Pentiment was custom-made for the game and different characters speak in different fonts depending on their standing in society. theres no voice acting but theres a pen-scratching sound that accompanies dialogue. peasants/townsfolk speak in a handwritten script. the monks all speak in intricate blackletter script. the town printmaker's dialogue has its own font and makes a clunking sound like wood blocks or a printing press. Sometimes someones font will change mid dialogue as you learn about them and their life. the dialogue writes itself out and looks like wet ink for a second before setting into dry. there are even intentional imperfections. sometimes there will be typos that sit there for a sec before being scratched out and corrected. the ink visibly bleeds a little bit where the correction was made. did you know this

tumblr should just fix and augment the search function so discovery is easy. that fixes the problem of creators leaving the site because their work isn't discoverable. and every other problem of this site.
there's a lot you can do with faceted and filtered search. like for basic stuff there's sort by notes, sort by dates. show posts from this month. show posts from this specific time frame. show posts of specific types. combine tags for searching (e.g. #tv show name + #fanart to see all the fanarts for the franchise). show and track/get notified of posts by these users with this tag (even outside of their blog!)
