okayokay i just made a new tumblr account to see what they've changed (besides the "for you" being default.), and they are totally pushing it more than an old user would realize
im logged into this account in one tab and the new one in the other and tumblr is REALLY confused and im not sure where this will post but thats besides the point.
anyways when you sign up it gives you this
Tumblr media
which is very comparable to sites/apps like pinterest and tiktok that have a personalized algorithm. when you scroll down its just random shit like Automobiles and Education. this is not pinterest. it censors stuff like sex but does NOT censor stuff like 'pee kink' . Notably!
Tumblr media
anyways i picked some very normal interests (random shit i could think of, i left pee kink because Haha Funny) .
Tumblr media
it then forces you to follow people! there is NOT a search, just a few trending users. it makes you pick 3 out of 10 users, one of them is the merch account, at least for me.
Tumblr media
once you go into the actual website it looks like this! note 'for you' being default. there is NOT an option that i see to change this. this is what i was trying to look at before i ran into all the other shit haha.
time to go turn off tumblr live again ! ^^ ((tumblr fix your goddamn site
NOTE SINCE THIS HAS GOTTEN ATTENTION - I have made 2 tumblr accounts before this one (in 2019 and 2021 i believe ?) and I don't remember this in the sign up process - however, my memory is also dogshit, so please do not sue me

Request for Genshin characters reacting to their s/o getting dressed up? (Like it’s rare to see them be extra radiant than they already are? 😍)
Tumblr media
PRETTY DOLL!
in which you look absolutely pretty for them <3
ayato, albedo, al haitham, diluc, kaeya, kazuha, tartaglia, heizou, scaramouche.
Tumblr media
the smile on ayato's ephebic face seemed to drop as it was split agape, crimson settles on either side of his face, seeming to reach on his forehead, his aquiline locks covered his embarrassed figure. "well~ how do i look?" you inquired teasingly, twirling around in your tight fabric, oh how adorable you looked. the blue cotton fabric hugged your dips and curves so nicely. his gaze only deepened as he let out a deep sigh, as if he were trying to take it all in; the long sleeves, the puffy skirt, the way it all fit you so perfectly. you could see the admiration reflecting from his eyes, and you knew he was thinking it too - you looked absolutely heavenly. "y-you look gorgeous love." he mumbled, not taking his eyes off of you. oh, how could he not? you looked way too ravishing for him to control the growing bulge. "but i think you would look even more alluring without all of this." he ended before you felt the sensation of his warm lips against yours.
albedo was smiling to himself, almost as if he was amused by your sudden appearance. not that he wasn't. although, you did look a bit too bodacious for him to control. thank the seven archons that klee wasn't here. the beige dress that reached till your knees matched his hair, his eyes lit up, his grin widening as he welcomed your presence warmly; he couldn't help but be charmed by your outfit and demeanour. his steps were directed to you, almost immediately forgetting about what he was experimenting about. his eyes travelled your whole figure before he averred teasingly "you must have cast a spell on me with that dress, or I'd still be in there, testing my theories." his hands casted to your face before he guided to his face, moulding his lips against your neck. his hands wandered around your thighs, softly grabbing the plush. oh well, you were more interesting than his studies.
al haitham displayed no expression, but his actions spoke louder than words. he tossed his book onto the nearest desk before pinning your hands to the wall, the puffy sleeves dangled lightly above you. "you sure know how to get my attention," he said with a teasing smirk, as his eyes locked with yours. "now I have yours," he added, his voice low and alluring, as he leaned ever-so-slightly closer. "I thought I'd have to do something a bit more daring to get your attention," you replied with a smirk, your eyes twinkling with amusement. "i guess i was wrong.". he raised an eyebrow, his face betraying a hint of surprise. "that's a bold statement," he said, his voice still low and alluring. "but I'm intrigued." that being the last thing he stated before his lips and yours were conjoined in a warm and loving embrace.
diluc was almost as red as his hair. "do i look good?" you questioned, noticing his visible change in demeanor. he trailed off, his eyes brightening with an intensity that made your heart flutter. His words hung in the air as he stepped closer, his hands wrapping around your waist. "let me show you just how beautiful you are," he breathed against your lips before kissing you. his lips were soft and gentle, and you felt like you were melting in his embrace. his gaze made you feel like the most desirable person in the world.
kaeya's visible smirk seems to widen even more, almost as if he had expected you to be adorned in this fabric. kaeya teasingly commented, "you look quite ravishing, my dear" as he stepped closer, admiring the way the dress hugged your curves and how your hair was let loose in a coy manner. he was happy that no one else other than him wasn't around to witness the moment, as he was certain he would be less than pleased if anyone else was present. he leaned in, brushing your cheek with a soft kiss and whispered, "this dress is as beautiful as you are, my love." his cold lips sent shivers down your spine. his frigid hands desperately tugged at the sleeves of your dress. good luck walking tomorrow!
kazuha abides a bleak smile, soft chuckles emitted from him as he toddled closer to you. holding your hands in his, he teases, "you look absolutely ethereal, dove" his fingers tangle with yours, intertwining in the process. his voice is low and soft, yet with a hint of playfulness in it. he smiles, his eyes twinkling with mischief. you can't help but smile back, feeling the warmth of his touch as you squeeze his hands. he leans in and plants a soft kiss on your forehead, his lips lingering for a few moments before he draws back and stares into your eyes. you both stand there, lost in each other's embrace, before finally he breaks the silence with a whisper, "i love you."
tartaglia was carmine stained, his breathing erratic. oh god, you looked so heavenly. his concentration had only come upon him when your melodious giggles had reached his ears. the feeling of two velvety hands placed on either side of his cheeks were felt, as he gazed upon you. his hands sorely rattled against your waist before pulling you closer to him. "do you feel as beautiful as you look?" he whispered, his lips hovering over yours. he kissed you again, this time more passionately, and you felt your knees weaken beneath you. "why, yes i do." you stated, a playful smirk crept up on your as you placed your arms over his shoulders. "then why don't you prove it?" he teased, pulling away to look into your eyes. you winked and grabbed his hand, leading him out of the room and into the night where a million stars shone in anticipation for what was to come. checkmate childe!
heizou's hands twirls with your locks, dandling every strand. his other hand travels up to your figure, feeling the mundane plush. his burgundy locks fall over his head as he draws closer to you. his fingertips linger, drawing a line from the nape of your neck down to your lower back. heizou teases you by lightly stroking your skin, sending shivers down your spine. his touch is gentle yet firm, as if he was trying to memorize your body with his fingertips. you can tell he's taking his time, savouring every moment as if he's trying to commit it to memory. "trying to impress me, my love?" his voice chaffed, his lips slowly curve into a soft smile as he meets your gaze, sending a spark of excitement through your body. abruptly, he stops and pulls away, leaving you wanting more. he looks into your eyes, his own smouldering with desire. "I'm sure you can do better than that, let me show you" he murmurs, that being the last thing before his lips sank against yours.
a scarlet tint powdered scaramouche's face, his eyes gloating into your contour, almost as if he just couldn't keep his eyes from gawking straight at you. his deep crimson cheeks were accentuated by his intent gaze, as if he was trying to captivate you with his piercing stare. "are you okay?" you asked concernedly. "shut up! you know what your doing." his voice came bouncing back. scaramouche's face was flushed in red. his eyes darted away from yours, as if he couldn't handle the intensity of your gaze. his cheeks were a brighter red than before, and he stammered nervously as he spoke. "I-I'm fine," he said, trying to regain his composure. "are you blushing? that's cute," you teased, raising your eyebrow playfully. scaramouche's blush only deepened, and he avoided your gaze, unable to hide his mortification. "oh yeah? i'll show you what's cute." his words melted against you before his pallid lips hit your stark warm lips. once again, he won!

Okay, hear me out, maybe we should let Tumblr do a little more algorithmic exploration. Because I just got recommended @nyancrimew​, the famous freedom hacker liberator of FAA ban lists security information specialist because they are like @is-the-post-reliable​, the semi-regular factchecker of bad posts. And I want to see the other kinds of connections Tumblr might make...

I think that... instead of changing our home dashes or making for you pages, Tumblr should add a function that is like reblogs but call it "zeitgeist." And you click it like a reblog, and it goes into the zeitgeist.
The zeitgeist is a separate dashboard that just is everything that was put into it, so it'll be a whole new hoard of posts from every active corner of tumblr every time you refresh. Whenever you're bored just tap into the zeitgeist. People will put stuff there like 37 times and you'll still have posts between them it'll be great (or it can be the only place with mandatory shortened posts, to prevent Color Of The Sky spamming, but only shortened posts, none of this "last few comments" thing. If you want to have embedded comments, have them in the replies so I can have a conversation without @ing them and digging for the last reply because it's functionally unusable if too many people engage)
Anyway.
create the zeitgeist you wish to see in the world.

Fck the tumblr algorithm because my "for you" tab is filled with anti-jewish messages when I follow blogs such as these. fck it all tbh it's depressing
honest tip? block any tags they use. even if the people you follow use these, it will still show you their posts containing it, but it should not recommend random posts using these tags.

Decided to say this here too: For my mental health's sake, i decided I'm gonna post shit and not give a fuck about the algorithm / interaction. took way too long to realize that likes don't really do much but give a temp dopamine boost. Then I think "well, why not reblog too?" then feel petty for no reason.🙄I see posts here and on twitter about how sharing / reblogging matters WAY more than 'likes'. While true, being on these sites for 10 years I can tell you nothing has changed, esp if you're not already popular, so personally it's not worth begging being anxious about. Focusing on the numbers really drains you. I like sharing what I draw and if people don't reblog it's their own loss ig. I focus on the positive small things. Maybe one day I will get to that popularity level my younger self dreamed of, but right now I'm just going to work on my art and stories.

Personally, I think it's fine for tumblr to have an algorithm-based OPTION, but I don't think it should be the default. I regularly hop over to the "for you" tab when my feed runs dry, and I think something like that is fine - semi-curated based on what I've interacted with, but bringing things to me that I may not have seen otherwise. On a tab I chose to click on that wasn't the default tab.
I think an ideal would be like... okay, when I signed up for pinterest, or spotify, they asked me what kind of things I already like. I clicked on some things, and then they supplied me with stuff I'd probably like to see/hear based on those things. I think it's fine if tumblr starts off a new user like that. It gets you in the door of the community, sets you up with some high-quality, highly-interacted with content. Then you start following people, and bam! Your personally-curated feed begins. You can click on either one, depending on your whims.
Tumblr already kind of works that way, but making it easier for new users IS a good thing for this website... as long as the chronological, personally-curated feed remains THE default, easily accessible, and using algorithms is just an option, the site will be usable and also grow.

Since the original undertale Naj has pedophilia and teacher x student and stuff, and made by a bad person, I decided to make my own version and redesigns.
Tumblr media
Here’s a redesign and some information of Paperjam, this is the only one I’ve drawn so far. (Im terrible at full bodies sorry).
Here’s some more information on my version:
Muffet is the junior counselor.

Sans and Grillby stays as the cafeteria staff.
Killer is no longer a student, he is a Special Ed’s teacher and helps run a ‘best buddies’ club.

Shyren is the chorus teacher.
Cotton is the band teacher.
Toriel is an English teacher.
Fika stays as the sign language teacher.
Sensy is a guard.
Blueberry is the sophomore counselor.
Science teaches biology.

Carrot (Swap papyrus) is an world history teacher.
Gold (fell swap papyrus) is a career exploration teacher.
Disbelief (disbelief papyrus) is the senior counselor.
Palette is a cheerleader coach and also helps run a ‘best buddies’ club.
————-
As you can see, I added some more characters because we needed more teachers and jobs and all.
Now onto students!
————-
Paperjam stays as a jock but he is a basketball player and stays as the captain of the sports club.
Fresh stays as a nerd, he works a summer job for the highschool. Painting walls and cleaning and such.
Frisk is a normal student, having decent grades and all.
Cross Chara is somewhat a troublemaker but overall a good student.
Xahji is a good student but not the best grades, she’s apart of the news club.
Swifty has good grades and apart of the news club.
Snazzy has great grades and normal, apart of the best buddies club.
Undyne is a bully but has good grades.
Papyrus has okay grades. (Oh, and he 100% has autism).
Cil is shy, he’s in Fine arts as he has good grades. He’s a baseball player.
Santy, Sam, and Mila are cheerleaders and okay grades.
Quill is apart of a writing club, good gradess.
Godzilla has good grades. in best buddies club.
Catty and Batty have the exact same classes and good grades. Both in best buddies club.
———-
I will add more students but that’s all I can do since it’s 1 am right now. Goodnight.

One additional issue with a Tumblr algorithm is that for many of us this website is a place for comfort and relaxation, and to chat with like minded peers, and it is no secret than many users of this website exist in a somewhat precarious mental state, and,
Even the algorithms we already have are bad enough to group the pro and anti sides of issues together, so that the religious bloggers fight the antireligious bloggers, the proshippers are seeing content from the antishippers, the TRA's are seeing content from the TERFS, the pro lifers are getting hit with content from the pro choicers, the feminists and the antifeminists are fighting one another, the body positive blogs are getting badly triggered by the eating disorder blogs, and on and on and on.
That's why we have refused every algorithm offered to us.
How could mandatory algorithms ever be a good idea on this website???
(This post is not for debate of any issue and anyone can reblog)

Tumblr knows I've been watching starkid musicals recently. The Hatchetfield fandom is hunting me down like I'm small game.
I'm a catch goddammit!

DISMISS option!
One of the perils of tumblr surrendering to an algorithm based system, and not defaulting to tags and prefs like we'd like, we're now drowning in a lot of content we DON'T WANT TO SEE ALL THE TIME, or ever.
When we look at a single post and like it, suddenly we're bombarded in "FOR YOU" with 900 posts on the same vein of that like, when all we wanted was maybe one or two posts. Now we're in an obsessive pile of that one thing overtaking our suggestions and feed. Or worse! We click on a blog or post to block/blacklist it permanently, because we hate it. Because...sometimes we need to actually look at the OP's tags and posts in order to hide the content specifically and effectively. But OOPS! We just created a "tick" that tells tumblr's "genius" algorithm that we want to see a ton of the very thing we blocked.
I guess you can block an entire blog, but why do that when it's JUST THE CONTENT you don't want to see in your suggestions and feed? If you don't have XKit Rewritten Post Block--which erases a post forever from your view--I just found out we have a "dismiss" option. Some of you may already know about this, but it was news to me because I am so annoyed with the extras and bs programming on tumblr, I tend to not see the GOOD stuff in the midst of all the useless changes. This is one of the good options, like the tag editing additions.
Tap those 3 dots on the post you don't care to see.
Tumblr media
BOOM. It's out of your hair without actually blocking or blacklisting. Now the dumbass algorithm is told to take a chill pill and back off.
