One year ago, I subscribed to Tumblr. A few days later, my account was terminated. I didn't know why. I contacted the support, but no answer.
A few days ago, they sent me an email asking me to update my payment. Because I didn't have access to my account, I contacted them again. Still no answer

Tumblr is no exception to this. Social media is a fad now. In fact go outside and talk to people instead. If you can't go outside and talk to people then you're an $#*!.

Tumblr live is annoying and no one uses it, and i have only seen people complain
You cant even permanently remove it from your dashboard

Tumblr has been a downright disappointment. They target queer, trans, and POC creators while leaving hate speech and dangerous users on the site. They even unfairly tag normal pictures of trans women as explicit. They refuse to listen to their users and are constantly making changes that no one asked for and that people are actively saying that they hate, and are actively removing accessibility features. They're trying to make their site more like Twitter or TikTok when its users don't WANT Twitter or TikTok, we want to use TUMBLR. The site is overrun with bots that try to scam you and staff has known about this for years but refuses to do anything about it.

They claim that people with epilepsy should just "buy the add-free" so they don't see ads with flashing lights that could literally KILL THEM. They also have extremely invasive promotions, such as what they're doing with Netflix's live-action One Piece. Even ad-free users who are paying to not see ads are seeing this. It's frustrating and annoying, and no one asked for them to change the layout of the dashboard to continue to push this product. This stunt is actively making me hate One Piece rather than making me want to watch it.

And to top it all off, they claim that anyone with negative feedback is just trolling them. Despite hundreds upon thousands of people all saying the same things over and over and over again. It's disgusting, it's disheartening, and I wish that staff would pull their heads out of their asses and actually listen to the people keeping this dumpster fire of a site going.

They keep downgrading their dashboard and overall user experience. No matter how much the majority of users give feedback to the staff, they simply force these downgrades. Tumblr used to be an amazing and exceptional social media website, but the recent trend makes them seem to want throw away their uniqueness. At this point, if you're fleeing Twitter, it might be best to look into other options than tumblr - its future isn't looking bright.

Mullenweg and his subordinates like to claim that it's a 'free speech' zone that's friendly to oppressed groups, while spending an outrageous amount of time and company resources on policing, threatening, disparaging, silencing, and OPPRESSING those very groups. From calling all Black users "russian troll farm agents" to repeatedly and assiduously tracking, stalking, and silencing anyone who brings attention to this habit, Tumblr is an enemy of anyone who signs on. Responding to the deaths of more prestigious networks by *copying the behaviors that ruined them* demonstrates that Mullenweg's & Tumblr's ability to harm its users is more important than turning any sort of profit for once! Shame on the entire staff and their pathetic boss.

Tumblr is currently trying to become a copy of reddit, twitter, and instagram by shortening posts and reblog chains. A fundamental cornerstone of their platform. As well as other $#*!ty recent decisions (tumblr live, trying to make the platform more like tiktok, etc)

Once upon a time it was actually excellent. Then Yahoo was bought by evangelical halfwits who bought Tumblr to evangelicize the hell out of it, slamming art pages, lifestyle pages and destroying the entire site. Then other halfwits bought the site and were deathly afraid of the Bud Light style backlash that would happen if they were less evangelical than the oppressors that destroyed the site in the first place. Compared to what it was, it's no more than 1/5 as great, shocking no one. What's the point in buying a site that you're afraid to let become good?

Tumblr tries to "look good" but has the worst treatment of customers. They trap you with campaigns you need to pay to get more "likes" for your works. But you won't get many. They send you messages that you campaign was "full impact" with many views and hood-lookung statistics. But you don't have the "likes". You try to contact them -which is really difficult - but you won't get any (senseful) response. Tumblr is just blablabla... won't recommend it for any artist!

Expect 40+ spam bot notifications a day. If you report them, Tumblr management laughs in your face and does nothing to ban them. So you have 90% of the activity on the site literal spam bots and 10% snarky content farmers. It's not really much of an interactive community at all. Then there's the whole secondary blog thing with zero ability to comment as your secondary blog or follow others as your secondary blog. What's the point. The platform is rubbish. The management is rubbish. I wouldn't be shocked if all Tumblr was at this point in time is a laundering racket like Craigslist clearly is. This website and their trash phone app are a complete scam.

I remember on tumblr I once received a message from someone who tried to tell me that an anime I liked was created by someone who was creating racist propaganda. I told her not to believe rumors like that on the internet, especially on a place like tumblr. Turns out, I was right and that the anime isn't created by some evil man. And it was just a rumor.

And that's basically what tumblr is like 24/7. Idiots believing in a lie without any sort of proof. They will bully people, they will argue all day and night. And the most embarrassing thing about it is that most of the people doing this are adults.

Some of the most craziest people are on this website. Sure, there are a lot of creative artists and writers. But most of the website is trash. Remember Kony 2012? Remember DashCon? Remember the ball pit? Yes, people on tumblr will blindly follow anything you tell them, as long as it makes sense in their little minds. Then they hurry to their blogs and type away about how 'brave' they are because they're fighting for what's right. Just as long as it fits in their little bubble.

Can't stand this place. It is horrible. I tried using it as a way to make friends and also share my hobbies and interests with others. Also, most people on tumblr act like a bunch of high school bullies. If you don't 'fit in' with the rest of them, you're treated like an outsider. Look, if you're an artist or writer, find a different website. Or even better, just leave social media behind because they're all horrible.

I didn't want to use their site, but I was trying to follow some content that applies to my career. So to follow, they asked me to register. Fair enough, but then they asked my age. Like that's any of their business? I tried to input that my age was negative six, but they saw through that and gave me the boot. Maybe they should try to make a better first impression. Geez.

After having data removed, they leave your name in their server, so the brand can be searched still off the back of your name. Delete means delete, or it does in certain parts of the world where brand piggybacking isn't consider good. Once you as them to delete, they should remove all data, morally and done without question. I now see why the customer service gets a low mark. Why do brands like to claim your data as their property, weird... and bit creepy.

Compared to twitter you can say so much more on tumblr. A lot of trans and non-binary and all those other people have really ruined twitter. I appreciate being able to follow people on tumblr who educated me on things I can't learn on twitter because of all the crazy censorship. It's a good site for microblogging.

Customer service gives you cut and paste replies, on the rare occasion they reply. They will not help you. I've just lost an account I've had for over a decade because I lost the phone number associated with it and even though there are dozens of methods of verifying my ownership (including me talking to them via the verified email address) their response is essentially that I'm out of luck. They want to keep your private information and sell it to advertisers. Never seen a tech company that have no backup methods that don't require you to be logged in to fix LOG IN ISSUES. Absolute nightmare.
