Dear staff,
Please give us the option to turn off Tumblr Live for more than a week. As in, permanently.
I don't want to have a dash where once a week the header turns into six buxom-but-vaguely-fake-looking people with cringey sub-porno usernames. I don't want that - FULL STOP.
It's not "maybe next week this user will want the porn bots". THIS USER DOES NOT WANT THEM AT ALL, FULL STOP.
And not because I'm anti porn or anti sex. I just don't want it shoved in my face without my say-so. Especially not by bots.
It makes no sense to maintain the boob ban and yet to have created - and forced upon us - this feature which has clearly instantly become the go-to for porn bots.
Thanks for the shout-out, @imsfire2. The Tumblr Live listings are EVERYTHING Tumblr has always claimed it's not. And yet here they, plastered on our dashboards, like we belong to [choose a scummy social media community] instead of Tumblr. OK, money's too tight to mention at Tumblr, but if this is the way out of strife, then it really is time to head for the EXIT door. Period.
