Why Stop Now!!

These are spam bots flooding tags and the website in general with spam links. They often do not have anything sexually explicit on their blog (although they often have implicit material). Plus, these two reports get very different results. Reporting explicit material gets the bot slapped behind an 18+ wall, so minors can't check if they're a bot or not. Reporting spam gets the bot taken down.

I just made a new sideblog and found out this setting is disabled by default.

This means that ALL new blogs will NOT have a [username].tumblr.com page. Not only that, but they will not have any themes besides the mobile-default.

As someone who really likes custom themes and Tumblr still having a fully customizable profile page, please turn this on!

You can make a website for your tumblr blog that is entirely your own!

Visiting your mutual’s tumblr pages will become much more fun if they do the same! I used to always associate blogs with the themes they had , but that’s sadly not possible anymore :(

If Tumblr themes die out, it will truly be an end of an era for the internet, and the future will hold only mobile-orientated, endless-scroll design devoid of personality.

Even if you don’t like themes, this is a move that almost destroys Tumblr’s origin as a blogging website and showcases the takeover of social-media-sameness.

a few things you may or may not know about:

BLOG ARCHIVE!!! you can find your archive at [url].tumblr.com/archive, although a ton of custom theme templates have a link to it built in (usually called something like ‘past’). this makes it considerably easier to find things if your blog is full of junk like mine, and you can search tags in it as well!

actual, functional, looking at the tags on your blog instead of the weird out-of-order search function that you get from the dashboard version. again, really good for finding shit if you organize it properly. 

AAAAND something i think some people may not know about: the ability to look at things in chronological order (not reverse chronological, actual chronological). wanna find the oldest shit in a tag? check out [url].tumblr.com/tagged/[whatever]/chrono. 

also custom pages and etc. there is a ton of stuff you can do with themes. if you know html you can touch the skies you can do whatever the hell you want

Tell me how to best protect Wakanda. I want to be a great king, Baba. Just like you. You’re going to struggle. So you’ll need to surround yourself with people you trust. You’re a good man with a good heart. And it’s hard for a good man to be king.
