Seen a couple posts now about using a crab rave to try and save tumblr and i’m a bit on the fence…
On one hand tumblr is likely making these terrible choices entirely because of how unprofitable this site is. So whether we like it or not throwing some money at it is probably a decent solution.
But then there’s no guarantee. One week long crab rave probably won’t be enough to keep tumblr afloat for long. And many people have good reason to not be spending even just 3$ for digital crabs. That might not even sway staffs mind anyway.
Not to mention that both the posts i’ve seen about this have been made by christians. Which isn’t a problem by itself of course. But one of them is straight up a sexist transphobic forced birther. The other seems fine, might have some weird views on porn, but probably not a bigot like the first?
Still i am hesitant on going with a plan endorsed by someone like the first one… but it’s also been shared by people i know aint like that…
