The Tumblr Situation
You know forget the websites that are basically virtual drug dealing grounds and the websites promoting harmful and unhealthy lifestyles.
So Tumblr is deleting all adult content on December 17th. From what I understand, this is due to a lot of child porn making the airwaves causing the company to remove their app from the app store for a limited time and then to ultimately come to the decision to remove all adult content. This could also be partially due to a bill trying to be passed to take all erotic content off of social media.
What was the outcome for Tumblr. Well their user base plummeted of course seeing as more than 1 billion of it's user base consisted of porn bloggers and sex workers. Now I don't care what anyone says. Tumblr was more of a porn site than it was an art site, so they are just shooting themselves in the foot.
Hopefully a new website will rise from the ashes.
I donated to Pillowfort to get into their closed beta testing. It seems to be a great alternative but they just aren't quite ready yet. I have a feeling they will be soon though
