i dont know how exactly you see the words “pedophiles need to burn but removing ALL nsfw content from a website where many people create and sell it just to pay their rent is a bad thing because they will be hurt, if staff actually moderated their website at all this wouldnt even be a problem” and read it as “i support pedophiles and hentai freaks and i think no one should do anything about them” but like congrats on making it to however old you are without evolving your reading comprehension past the second grade i guess
also anon and everyone else supporting this stupid-ass decision by staff is wholly ignorant of a plethora of other issues involved w the algorithm they have in place
fuckin. countless lgbt blogs n posts are automatically flagged as nsfw and susceptible to being banned, random pictures are for some reason or another flagged as nsfw, etc
its a broken system completely incapable of functioning properly, therefore putting basically anyone on the site at risk, Because tumblr absolutely refuses to, for even one second, actually put effort into moderating and filtering content that is ACTUALLY harmful
they don’t care about keeping adult content away from children- they can’t be bothered to actually properly deal with CP and pornbots (the reasons tumblr got taken out of the app store and the Google play store) so they’re getting rid of all content their system seems adult in an attempt to get back into the stores
if they really wanted to just keep adult content away from children, they would improve their safe mode filter, implement some form of age verification (which even if really simple actually goes a long way to preventing accidental exposure) and just actually get rid of porn bots and cp
there’s no moral reasoning for this new decision, and it does not work properly at all
