Tumblr hide-and-seek

Tumblr is now hiding individual posts and even entire blogs which are completely acceptable under the new Community Guidelines regarding nudity.  >>>

They say: “Nudity and other kinds of adult material are generally welcome. We’re not here to judge your art, we just ask that you add a Community Label to your mature content so that people can choose to filter it out of their Dashboard if they prefer.”

You can read the entire guidelines here  >>>

TumblrTumblr is a place to express yourself, discover yourself, and bond over the stuff you love. It’s where your interests connect you with yourTUMBLR.COM

To see ALL the posts on this and other blogs, go to your General Settings and the under the Content you see section… then under “Mature” select SHOW.  I also suggest that for the setting of “Hide additional potentially mature content” you turn this to OFF.  As always, this is entirely your decision and whatever you choose to do I respect that.

Thanks to all my followers who support this blog.  I do appreciate you and your comments and feedback.

Special thanks to @my-beach-place and @cameron-wolfe-again-3 and @thatpeskypigaz for helping me with this message.  I suggest you give them a follow.

Video is the lovely Anastasia Scheglova… when she wants you to smile… well… you’re going to smile…

Home safely from my little weekend trip.

For some reason, they completely wear me out.

I am not complaining.

I love the variety.

But I also look forward to those quiet weekends, possibly a little entertaining at friend’s house.

Or just lounging around.

Being me.

When I made my original Tumblr Purge 2: Electric Boogaloo PSA, I knew the situation was bad, but I still had no idea how bad. It was only after I started noticing how many posts were missing on iOS, investigating exactly which tags caused them to be blocked, and making my own list that it really sunk in. Y’all it’s bad. It’s real bad.

While most of the banned tags are at least somewhat logical (nsfw, porn, kink, etc) there are also a significant number that have no relation to “sensitive content” whatsoever. In fact, these tags are so ubiquitous you would be hard pressed to find a single tumblr user that doesn’t regularly use at least some of them, especially content creators. I don’t know how these tags could’ve possibly ended up on the banned list, but my guess based on my findings and tumblr’s general level of competence: a bunch of blogs flagged as explicit were scraped and all of the tags that were used x amount of times were dumped into a “banned tag” database and never checked by a real human. I can only assume that some of these will be walked back eventually once the backlash becomes great enough (as they did in the Original Purge), but until that happens we’re left managing this mess as best we can.

And in case you’re thinking to yourself “surely it can’t be that bad,” here are all of the general/fandom tags I’ve found so far that are now hidden, from both searches and dashboards, on the iOS app (more under the cut):
