SHIT

Just so you know, the post about children’s toys that light up was made by a terf

Thank you for the heads up!

deleted scene from farewell my turnabout

so distressed every time i see my untagged copiaposts In The Tags. where i do not want them. this blog is the equivalent of me sitting in class doodling his tragic little lip-fillered face in the margins of my notebook and then slamming it shut when the teacher walks by.

on one hand if everyone here locks their fics under ao3 and also makes their blogs completely unindexable / unsearchable we'll be fine. on the other but also good hand we can also blame all of tiktok and twitter for being / growing their own type of absolute degenerates and they can all take the fall for not keeping themselves in check. on the other bad hand everyone has to deal with the existence of the basic idea that humans ship re al ppl

Having these soup talks posts is like starting to say one thing getting distracted and then going into deep grief and now I have to rewrite the actual post part of this. These feel like headings for the actual post

ever since i cut off the community here, all my posts are literally just me screaming into the void lmao no one ever sees anything i post on this blog

its kinda great ngl

fuckin bots leave me ALONE

I can't wait to see this painted. I'm not sure how I feel about the base but the figure itself looks really good to me

god i can’t wait to write jinx again............i have so many chaotic neutrals i am so excited to write a neutral with evil tendencies character.......

do people understand that your reblog tags on a post do not impact whether or not a post goes into the main tag. like it does not matter how many times people in my notes tag a post of mine with "qsmp" or whatever the tag is, it's not going into that main tag; that's not how browsing tags work. the ONLY way a post goes into a browsible tag is by OP putting the tags on the original post.

relatedly, do people understand that tag blocking functions the opposite way-- if someone tags "discourse" on a post at any time, it is immediately blocked for anyone who has "discourse" on their filtered tags list. does not matter what op tagged, does not matter who puts it on your dash from that point forward, the tag is on the post so it's going to be filtered. this is how i end up not seeing a lot of those big "tag a piece of media that--" posts; it's because i have a lot of things blocked, so anytime a single person tags any of them on a post, i have the whole post blocked. [and i use xkit rewritten, which means i don't even see the post at all]

also related-- there is a difference between actually browsing a tag and searching a phrase-- tumblr has made it kind of strange to tell the exact difference, so i'll demonstrate:

so when i type in "qsmp fanart", it gives me a couple of options.

first, i can click "Go to #qsmp fanart", which will take me to the tag "qsmp fanart":

rad, exactly what i'm looking for, i'll scroll through latest to see what people have posted in the last couple hours.

however, secondly, it gives me the option "[search] qsmp fanart", which is NOT the same thing as opening the tag itself. it will open the search function and look up "qsmp fanart," meaning it grabs whatever assortment of posts tumblr's broken search engine has decided mention "qsmp fanart":

[most of said posts are, in fact, qsmp fanart, as the way tumblr's search indexing works does include searching tags, but it also searches post content. i'm censoring because posting screenshots of people's art feels iffy to me, not because i have any issue with the art itself.]

these two things are NOT the same. one of these takes you do the actual tag, the other makes you search for those terms mentioned on a post. which, like i said, means it indexes not just the tags but the post content itself-- this means any mention of said search term on a post means it could be seen in this search (unless OP has their blog marked unsearchable). for a while, as well, tumblr made this the default whenever you pressed enter rather than manually clicking an option, meaning people would think they were opening the tag to browse it but instead were searching for whatever they entered. i believe they've fixed that now, or at least one of my extensions has; regardless, clicking the # option will get you to the right place.

this is, in part, how i think we get people going "you put neg in the main tag!!!" which, while it does happen often, is not always the issue; what actually happened is tumblr actually had them search for the term mentioned in the tag rather than going into the tag itself. regardless of this issue, though, i think it's just good for people to understand the difference between when they're searching posts (not very helpful at times, doesn't get you much of what you're probably looking for depending on the search term, drags up every single post (that tumblr can actually index properly) that mentions the term) versus when they're opening the tag (OPs here clearly actually want you to see their posts).

Also has anyone noticed if your blog was set to be unsearchable before they added the ai opt in/out button, they auto opt you out of course but if you try to make your blog searchable it doesn’t work anymore? I set one of mine to searchable so I could find something and it’s been a day and I still can’t search it. I used to do this all the time with no issues prior to the button being added…

attention cutie patooties, I have moved. 🧍🏼‍♀️🧍🏼‍♀️

there were a bunch of problems w this acc (like tumblr making me unsearchable and eating every req i got 😋) so i figured it was just simpler to migrate

my blog is now @eternalgyu (same handle as my other one but diff acc) ‼️‼️

Hi just wanted to let you know your faq is down

i had to make my blog unsearchable because i have been receiving a lot of harassment and death threats. you'll have to open the link in a browser.

in light of new changes: do not give tumblr your money if you disapprove of what they are doing to this site, this encourages them to continue implementing changes at the expense of their userbase. use the feedback feature on /support to submit complaints, as attempting to mention staff/humans/any personal blogs from there may be falsely flagged as harassment (lest we forget partyjockers) & tank their ratings on apps stores with your same complaints over the new features they are implementing. please, feel free to bring up their insensitivity to disabled people regarding visual overload or epilepsy; tumblr live making it a dangerous place for american individuals, especially kids, as it shares their location and there is no permanent way to turn it off; instances of transphobic or racist harassment that has gone unmoderated despite reports; or of the fascist problem they have on here, which they do not censor in the least. they have the ability to make tags unsearchable and completely erase posts, yet never apply it to these violent groups. there is so much they could be doing, which the majority of the userbase has requested they work on, yet they refuse to. make your complaining productive and share it where it'll actually be heard.
