JUST adding the ability to reblog from anywhere in the thread (thus saving us the trouble of going up a poster to remove a reblog we don't want/need, such as sometimes I go up a reblog to not carry on a ping someone did to me, as that doesn't need to follow the post everywhere)? Cool. We were already doing that kind of stuff. People have up-chained to remove additions since time immemorial on this hellsite. This would literally have just been a time-saver button.

JUST adding in a comment-adder getting notification ALSO if their addition was reblogged (and NOT removing the notification/notes from the original post), so that OP and the commenter get notified? Yeah okay. Nothing would have been taken away from anyone, and this would actually add a function that would allow commenters to respond to people who reply to them, even if the person didn't reblog directly from them. OP would also see, so they could also be in the conversation they started. No one gets cut out of the conversation if they've added to it. That would be neat.

But to cut OP out of the conversation if someone reblogged from them and commented?? what kind of hot garbage?? what kind of drug-induced hallucination created this community-killing change? Who on earth approved this? What was the goal of this move?? You could have done something good and useful with your time instead of pissing on your poor userbase and calling it rain.

For decades, reblogs have made tumblr a near-popular site, even inspiring platforms like twitter to include a retweet feature before it was turned into x-crement. Now, tumblr has successfully removed this feature to make the site far worse.

According to tumblr prime-minister Karl Lipidbrain, "Tumblr has always worked hard to alienate its users, from its harsh treatment of the trans demographic, to its ban of nipples (which nearly 1/5th of its users have at least one of) and all the way back to the time we deleted the whole site to spite the weebs. But now, we are making the entire note system into absolute useless shit. Soon, we should be able to boast a zero user count and make tumblr small enough to throw out in the back dumpster."
