Tumblr Blackout - Tumblr Posts

ok, so I never make posts like this, but I feel like I should let y'all know.

on august 6th, there will be a Tumblr blackout.

so as most of you know, Tumblr has tried making post plus a thing, and unfortunately, after all the surveys and posts we made against it, their making it a thing anyway.

so, another Tumblr user whom I forgot the name of, decided to make a point to Tumblr that we do not want, never wanted, nor needed, post+. and to make this point, we are gonna hit Tumblr where it hurts.

ad revenue

so, on august 6th, No one use Tumblr, this blackout, if I'm remembering right from the original post, will last 24 hours. please spread the word about this, make posts about this, do what you need to do to to make sure Tumblr plus doesn't become a thing.

mutuals, care to help out by making a post or reblogging the original post or this one?

Ok guys, the Tumblr post+ blackout is tomorrow (Friday August 6, 2021)!! It will be for 24hrs!!

Please don’t post or interact on tumblr tomorrow so tumblr will lose money on ad revenue!!

Hopefully they will end post+ and our protest will be effective since our surveys were not!!

Please spread the word!!

After careful consideration and a fourth re-reading of the Tumblr blackout proposal, I might not participate.

It seems poorly organized with a lack of knowledge regarding Tumblr as a website, and while now is a good opportunity because of the blackout at Reddit and the demands for change are needed, the blackout has a bunch of issues that many other users have already covered.

I will, however, happily sign back up if the proposal is renewed or if my concerns can be dismissed!
