(December 4, 2018, 6:21 pm)Bumpjoblover45 I wish I had a better understanding of their reasoning for doing this. Their official statement said that it was to make Tumblr a more welcoming environment for people to freely express themselves, but wouldn't purging all NSFW content be doing the opposite of that? Some people do express themselves through that kind of content, and their current policy of putting NSFW content behind an age-gate should deal with the issue of people being exposed to content that they believe is inappropriate.

There's that & their main goal is to attack people who are in love with Pedophilia. Even though they are attacking NSFW stuff in general but they also want to stop the sex trafficking of minors according to another sit that I don't have the link to.

I just reblogged preggo content I found on other Tumblrs for the most part with a very rare post of my own of acquiaintances/friends of acquaintances I spotted on social media.  

If preggo tumblr blogs vanish so would most of my reblogging.  I imagine they are gonna nuke my blog because of the NSFW posts I've shared over the past few years.  

Kinda wish they could wipe the blog as it is and I would just focus on clothed preggos going forward, aka a clean version of it.  

I think Tumblr is underestimating the sheer amount of people who use that site specifically for porn reasons.  As a "blog" site it sucks.

Some of the app stores refused to include the Tumblr app because of the content on there.  They are doing this to get back into those stores.

So capitalism and attacking pedophiles? The second one, alright, I support that, but the first one? Fuck right off.

The feds wanna "delete" anything not PG rated. We know blogspot doesnt have hot pics. This place is all we got left. Tumblr is going on my hate site list now. Becides: porn an adults looking at hot or illegal stuff is supposed to happen. Its a natural part of life. Whats next? Doing the same to YT? if they did most of the music vids would be gone. More belly movement vids on YT are being age restricted. Soon they will become just like tumblr. Fuck you tumblr & the same goes to Amazon.

I hope someday next year Tumblr either gets hacked or something and falls. They deserve it now. I say delete your tumblrs before they delete you. Like someone I know did at a job: quit before you get laid off.

Pretty much.

(December 4, 2018, 8:25 am)evokombat Does it matter? Just like Vine, Craigslist, or any other popular site that went down, people are just going to flock to a new site and business will pick up as usual. The people getting pissy over Tumblr's decision are the same ones who are too lazy to type in another URL into their browser.

This. You still have time to download and screencap what you like before the NSFW ban happens and reupload it to a different platform. This is no different from when the original preggo community shut down and people jumped over to this site. There's already over a dozen Tumblr alternatives that people can choose from.

Common sense dictates to me that the content shared on sites like this one needs to stay the fuck off social media platforms like Tumblr, YouTube, Wordpress and to a lesser extent Facebook.

I really don't get the outrage expressed in this thread. How can folks be surprised? Tumblr is a mainstream platform. It was just a matter of when not if.

Or did folks forget about FOSTA already? Link: https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-cong...-bill/1865

And hey. at least they gave people time to back up their shit. They could've done what CraigsList did and just flipped the switch without warning. On that note, Google Drive will probably have something similar happen sooner or later. Photobucket forced alot of folks away by charging to embed or hotlink and shrinking how much free storage you get. That was their way of putting a stop to pedophiles sharing content via their platform. I think ImageShack did something similar too. I do see Google Drive doing something similar sooner or later too.

...It's like I said in another thread: We need to make our own sites and platforms. That's the only long term solution. The obvious problem is everyone is waiting for someone else to do it. LOL.

When it comes to consuming content, I could care less about the ban. There are other sites for that.

But when it comes to meeting people with similar fetishes? That's what bums me out. I thought tumblr was a great outlet for my fetishes and meeting people with similar fetishes, but now I don't know what to use for that.
