Thoughts on Tumblr?

just like any other big site there are good aspects and bad aspects, i'd find it hard to hate tumblr as a whole although there are definitely toxic elements to it. i don't personally use it that much but when i did it was just to browse through images i liked, maybe i'd feel differently if i was actually part of some kind of community on it but i keep to myself
Dat tumblr girl look so kawaii omgggggggg
Couldn't resist~
I once said "soft pretzels are the best"
And I got a response saying "wow. that's such a white thing to say. This site is about including everyone, so think again before you post ignorant **** like that. Ok?
I deleted my account that day

honestly i kind of feel like people who blow it up as the worst site ever have never made an account?
yeah it's got toxic stuff but you control who you follow? my dash is pretty much all animal crossing and stuff i like, no drama or whatever people complain about

It's good if you follow the right people.
It's toxic if you follow the wrong people.
Also use the blocking feature?
Sure it's garbage but it'll prevent that person from bugging you.
Yeah you'll still get crap people but just use it to block them.
Anytime someone is bothering you just block them.
You don't have to fight back.
Also the site itself is pretty garbage.
I refuse to use it without xkit.
It makes the site more usable and just generally more pleasant to use.
Helps make the site easier and faster and just more efficient when you get on.

Not to bothered by it. I like scrolling through the posts because they make me laugh. And there's a lot of informative writing on there like what to do if you're homeless, etc. I don't run an account, and even if you found my account it really has nothing but a few good posts or interesting articles. I don't completely understand how it works too. But a lot of people on there are extremely butthurt about nothing, and like trashing each other because they said one thing that completely bothers them. Like honestly, I understand when people say jokes sometimes I get a little offended, but you cannot judge one on the Internet.

The sad thing is, this is just too true!
I have met some seriously wonderful people on tumblr, who share my interests in lolita fashion, love live, and music.
However, the tumblr community can sometimes be a little toxic! They can be obsessed with twisting your words into something cruel,making you feel like a huge bully. Once I saw someone use the word mad as an alternative for angry, and they got dozens of messages telling them they were being offensive. I could understand, but it wasn't even said in a cruel or mocking way.
This caused the OP to deactivate, which was such a shame as they were a genuinely lovely person.
But if you control who you follow, you should be fine.
It can be hell or heaven, depending on the people you follow. Follow people and block annoying tags and it is a fun place!

Only one aspect of Tumblr but a large part of the militant/angry LGBT community can indeed be found there. Or even here on TBT. Tumblr leaks quite a bit onto this site.
I like Tumblr. I usually had to make blogs on Weebly but boy, did Tumblr make things easier. In fact, I now have a Tumblr for random things. I would recommend it to other people as it is just YASSSSSS! In short, Tumblr is the best because it is not really social media, so I'm allowed to have it, thanks the gods above. I don't see what other people see in it that makes it bad. I think it just makes things easier and I freaking love it.
I like tumblr for following lolitas, artists, and posting cute things.
I hate tumblr for the social justice and disgustingly vile attitude that comes with that. "Die cis scum" etc. Gross humans.
If someone I'm following mentions radical social justice, I just instablock them because my cute space aint got time for 14 year old edgelords. I think tumblr has a general good foundation in the sense that there's more support for poc and the trans community, which was great in the beginning. But at the same time it has fueled rad fems, blogs devoted to killing all white people and blogs devoted to killing all cis people. I think it has moreso turned into a hate machine than anything, which is why I steer clear of that portion of tumblr. It's exhausting keeping up with the 5 new genders popping up every day and the 50 new kins types every 10 seconds.
I do love tumblr in action tho, guilty pleasure.

I like tumblr and I run quite a popular blog, but then I mainly hang out on the studyblr and medblr community, who aren't exactly the most argumentative people.
I agree with a lot of the left-wing stuff on tumblr like the feminism and anti-racism etc, but there will always be people who take it too far, and yeah there are people who are a bit aggressive about it all, and jump on people without giving them a chance to explain themselves.
But funnily enough I've also run into quite a few unpleasant far-right people on tumblr too. I've been called 'socialist scum' and the like for making a post about healthcare and things like that. But I suppose on the whole they are less common on tumblr

80s anime is cool
It's great for posting art and gifs.
But other than that, Tumblr is a mess.
