Every Tumblr user ever: I hate tiktok so much I wouldn't get near it with a ten meters pole
Tumblr every three days: Here's a brand new way we tiktokified your perfectly fine Tumblr this week
#Rant incoming feel free to ignore this#:(#Read the new @/changes update and I want to throw up.#What's going on seriously they were handling this website so well up to like a month ago.#What do you mean people who create an account after May 8th won't get a dashboard as default... Are you insane.#Did you hit your head or something#What is going on????????#“Some folks will start getting access to certain badges based on different actions/accomplishments” with all due respect. Kill me right now#What is this???????????????? This is even worse than all the recent stretching and highlighting on mutuals / followers.#I don't follow anyone leave me ALONE#Like seriously someone really needs to remember Staff that the best part of Tumblr is the low competitiveness–#that literally every other social lacks. They used to know back in the day???#And now it's all “Here's who follows you (((and by evident extension who doesn't)))”. Have you considered I DON'T WANT TO KNOW#Next update they'll hit you with a “follower count / likes / following is all public now btw 😊”#and that's going to be the day I'll disappear from the entire internet once and for all#Tbh I think I'm going to write some very polite but strong worded submission to staff or something.#I know chances are they won't even read it but things are so bad I don't want to leave anything untried#random rambles

🌟 New
Accounts created after May 8th, 2023 have the “For You” tab as the default dashboard tab. Other existing users’ dashboard tabs are not changed. We are also working on making dashboard tabs even more customizable, including adding the ability to choose which tab appears first.
In the Android app, you’ll now see ads in the image lightbox from time to time.
When you’re using Tumblr in a web browser, typeahead search results will show a Live indicator if the blog is currently livestreaming.
Another thing for web users: There’s a new activity filter that allows you to include or exclude notifications about Tumblr Live.
One more web thing: The sample posts on /customize now include NPF posts so you can check how those look in your theme.
Folks who send anonymous asks will now receive a push notification when that ask is answered.
In the iOS and Android apps, we added a button to insert a read more into a post (typing :readmore: + hitting return still works though).
Some folks will start getting access to certain badges (similar to those important internet checkmarks) based on different actions/accomplishments.
On web and Android, we’re experimenting with highlighting tags that are trending, so you might see a different color tag on a post in your dashboard. That means it’s trending on Tumblr! Here’s an example of what that looks like:
You can find this post here.
🛠 Fixed
We fixed a bug that could sometimes prevent the post editor from being closed if you opened it using the C key. This bug only happened if you were using Tumblr in a web browser.
Another web fix: Unpublished submissions no longer show a note count.
🚧 Ongoing
Nothing to report here today.
🌱 Upcoming
We are continuing to remove the option to use the legacy post editor. Next week, we’ll begin removing the option to create legacy photo posts.
👀 In case you missed it
On web, clicking the reblogged-from blog name in a reblog’s post header now takes you to that blog, not their reblog. Clicking in the empty space in the post’s header, and in the header of each reblog trail item, now takes you to that specific post in the blog view popup. This is one of a series of updates we’re making to the reblog consumption experience across all platforms to make Tumblr more consistent.
