The old CEO stepped down I think last year and whoever came on just doesn't know much about their own product.

Tumblr is a site that existed solely for porn and whose moderation team is infamous for blackmailing artists, writers, streamers, and other gig economy era sex workers who depend on it to host their content and deliver traffic to them.

I'm going to say that that combo is v bad and hosed up.

they did such a hard commitment to this that there's not gonna be an easy way to reverse it

a lot of images were just batch deleted and lost forever before people could contest the content flagging and a lot more obviously not-porno images were rejected in appeal

Statistics from the web analytics service SimilarWeb, cited by TechCrunch in 2017, found that “adult” content was the top driver of traffic to Tumblr’s desktop site, responsible for some 20 percent of clicks.

Honestly if they go through with the everything ban and don't back down there's a pretty big market someone could tap into if they could get a site up

this is a net loss for the internet in terms of horny levels, but i really do love watching a company so thoroughly shoot itself in the foot like this. you're basically a one trick pony but you're the king in that niche so everything is fine! until you get rid of that and whoops, now there's literally no reason for anyone, at all, to care.

someone who is good at the economy help please, my business is dying

How was it even good for that? 99% of the porn that was posted never had a comment or even so much as a reply so you never knew how the gently caress to find the porn that was posted

Check whos reblogging or liking it and check that page to see what other weird kinks they're reblogging. Usually people are pretty niche.

Yeah but my point is unless you feel like posting every single gif on r/tipofmypenis you aren't going to find out where that porno is from unless people are just jacking off to gifs or something
