tumb/lrs so broken that some posts it wont let me use legacy and others it wont let me use beta so i have to hop between them for random shiz and then legacy keeps getting glitched out to double replies for some reason and then it doesnt actually tell you what editor the mobile app has. like is it legacy? is it beta? is it its own thing bc for a company w less than 200 employees they put too much work on their backs that they cant finish and i hope they stop breathe take a minute and reflect on how maybe changing things suddenly without testing them w audiences first and LISTENING to their reactions is a bad idea? will their most recent only good idea be the double checkmarks bc thats a good way to earn money to keep this website alive bc they cant anymore if theyre not funded purely bc they saw the opportunity to diss a fuckhead and took it doubled it and made it hilarious and stalkable? will the employees ever have rest considering they clearly dont have an actual CS department anymore? we just dont know
#i dont think they can have a cs department rn tbh i think their devs run it too lol#actually i think its 100 employees now#thats why theyre pushing their merch and ad free and stuff brw theyre trying to earn money to keep the website active#and probably didnt think fundraising like a3o would work given… how we are lol#i think personally the checkmarks were their wisest move for earning the money to survive tho bc thats just fckn hilarious AND THEY STACK#they should focus on that lore than changing the editors and not making them coexistable bc im tired of habing to change editors halfway#through a reply bc it broke#but with how much data tumblr has to save. people dont realize how much money that costs#like theres a reason hollow art hasnt come back#and a reason why a lot of fansites go under. storage is fucking expensive as shit#you can even learn at home like i pay $10 a month for icloud now ao i can record concerts i go to and relive them#external harddrives are anywhere from $40-$400 depending on the size and capacity#google cloud? dropbox? cost money#keeping a website active whenit houses data. ESPECIALLY photo data#is not cheap. thats why so many go under so quickly if they dojt find a way to earn money or get advertisers theyre pretty much fucked#and idk if ppl noticed but a LOT of tumblrs advertisements are… for themselves#so theyre not paying themselves advertisement lol i think hp mystery and pogo are the only non tumblr adds ive seen in MONTHS#out.#anyways i do feel for the employees but i do think they should be honest#look at how archive and wiki just post a thing on top saying ‘hey youre here all the time and we’ll go under if we dont earn some money#can you maybe spare a few dollars for us thanks’ and ppl might be more inclined to do it#its not actively telling people that i think is the problem bc them ppl think ts a capitalist agenda when its bc hosting this much content#is unbelievably expensive. all the gifsets we post they have to pay to host#and the price of housing that much data.. its a lot#i gotta get ready for work soon but im also v v nauseus
