#stupid tumblr autoplay

[firespirited]

When I put the tag "my dogs" on posts of Lily *and* Talia who spends a lot of time with me, it is for organisational purposes. Talia is a type of dog who bonds to one person and is different levels of friendly with others. Talia is close with me but my sister is *Her Person*.

It is adorable to witness. They are perfect for each other. In this video, sis left to get water for maybe two minutes.

You find out that I'm Lily's 'designated person' if she's dislocated something, has a splinter, matts or a rash - she goes very still and doesn't let anyone else touch her. She either shows me or lets me pick her up and roll her on her back somewhere comfortable to inspect it all.

Chihuahuas are clingy but that's also a really good thing if you make sure they never get possessive. It means they're just delighted to hang out as a lapdog or close by while you work or sleep. All the ones i'd seen on tv were not trained or very enfuriated by being treated as toys not dogs (no-one likes being grabbed from the floor without permission).

killing this ad with hammers

[amazingnobody]

Tumblr videos don't do that! Only the horrid ads!

whoever decided to start implementing ads on here that automatically unmute and cut off any music app you might have on in the background as you scroll by should be hunted for sport

[oh-nodont]

Is there a way to turn the sound off for ads so my music isn't interrupted every ten seconds?

i miss when tumblr themes were a bigger part of this site. like. obviously there was a fun vibe when it came to making and sharing themes and redux edits and transparent images of your anime boyfriend to float above your description where you called yourself a butt.

but also i think the comedy of seeing someone's asinine, stupid fuck post only to open their blog and find this theme

and an autoplaying indie rock track that sounds like complete ass is just lost in the modern era where posts all look the same

You know what, fuck this baby-ass website for babies.

Tumblr, you wanna keep flagging my Review posts cause they have a single gif with a barely-visible nipple in them, that's one thing. But to keep flagging these ancient posts of mine that are comprised of literally just - I kid you not - simple, unedited screenshots from the hit Nickelodeon cartoon "The Angry Beavers", that's another thing entirely.

I'm 38 fucking years old, I do not have time nor patience for this bullshit.

I've been checking in on the site regularly to see how my gif posts have been faring because I'm a stupid little addict who likes seeing the little numbers go up, even though I don't actually use this site anymore as intended. Well, I've had it up to here with this flagging nonsense, so it's time to fucking shut it off and pack it up, for GOOD this time.

I'm letting the queue empty out, drafts and all, and I'm not putting anything else into it after that. Granted, there's still several months worth of gifs in the queue at the moment, but that's that. No more.

This is my line in the sand. Tumblr can't handle when I put a barely visible nipple in a gif and keeps telling me I'm breaking their policies on sexual content by having reblogged a video a year ago that dared to feature drag queens in it, not to mention flagging many-years-old posts with screenshots of oh-so-horrible Definitely Adult Material cartoons like Humanity Has Declined, Spartakus & The Sun Beneath The Sea, and The Angry Beavers. What a fucking joke.

Anyway, if you haven't already, come visit me on a REAL website: MINE. No ads, no comment sections, no autoplay videos, no content feeds, no paywalls, no subscription service shilling, not even a goddamn Like button. It's fucking BEAUTIFUL. I have a ton of stuff you can check out there: art (uncensored), comics, music, original novels you can read ON SITE, anime reviews, old cringey AMVs, and a more.

Click THIS LINK (nsfw warning) and bookmark me!

I love the people I've met here, but I hope this shitty website burns to the ground. AGAIN.

Bring back the untamed wilderness of the internet. Get yourself a (free) personal website today and go find me there!

If I have to listen to that stupid autoplay temu ad one more time im going to take Tumblr's staff out back and shoot them

[childhoodgrave]

can tumblr fix their stupid fucking TAP THE CHESTS TO SEE WHAT YOU GET autoplaying nightmare ads that pause whatever in watching or listening to every 5 SECONDS I HATE THIS WEBSITE

[t440]

i can barely use tumblr because of having a migraine and their stupid autoplay ads not respecting the “no autoplay” option. i just want to vote on what pokemon would win…

[lemonjestercoffee]

ads on the tumblr app have become way more frequent since they made that stupid subscription thing and it's lowkey starting to bug me. it use to be like- at the most often every seven posts, it's now every 4-3 posts

whats worse is most of them are autoplaying videos that lag my shitty phone out

can i scroll in peace please?

[c0rpseductor]

hate the new fucking autoplay ad on the stupid fucking tumblr app with that dumb music where you’re supposed to spray ants or whatever. i keep reporting it but idk what to report it as because there’s no option for “this ad autoplays sound” even though i KNOW they’re not supposed to

[clueless1995]

tumblr ads autoplaying their stupid music are far from the worst thing about this platform but my god is it irritating

[writhe]

tumblr needs to not autoplay advertisements that continues to BLARE for like 2 seconds even if my phone is on silent even after i immediately fully close/exit the app. it’s 1) mortifying to EVER play an advertisement out loud in public, 2) a jump scare, and 3) so goddamn enraging it’s stupid

[nightfallsystem]

tuMBLR IF YOU GIVE ME ONE MORE STUPID FUCKING AUTOPLAYING WITH AUDIO TEMU AD IM GOING TO GO TO YOUR HEADQUARTERS AND FUCKING SHOOT MYSELF INFRONT OF YOU.

[rraaaarrl]

Today in the Horrors of the iOS Tumblr App, I present you:

The thrilling feature of stupid fucking video ads auto playing WITH THE FUCKING SOUND ON even though by default I have turned off ALL autoplay features including gifs because all that moving shit on my phone is fucking annoying. Not only, does the fucking sound starts but. Because I stream Spotify to my laptop speakers all work day, my phone is connected to my laptop via AirPlay or whatever. Guess what happens.

I’ll tell you what fucking happens: the sound of the stupid ad video INTERRUPTS MY MUSIC and!!!! The fucking video hijacks my laptop screen whilst auto playing, blocking, you know, what I am actually working on! So I have to hit escape on my laptop to banish the bullshit video. But! It gets even more amazing!!! Hitting escape to silence the video effectively disconnects the AirPlay connection from my phone, meaning I can’t just resume listening to my jams, I now have to manually reconnect AirPlay in Spotify.

Now I have to ask: how tf is this a feature? Do you really think hijacking my devices with your shitty ads is gonna make me want to click on that garbage. I really wish I was the fly on the wall for that particular project management meeting. I really want to hear the genius idea behind such an ILL CONCEIVED USER EXPERIENCE. Are all your project managers sociopaths or just tragically stupid?!

I mean my solution at this point is to never scroll through Tumblr while connected to my laptop, so congratulations I guess, for making me want to visit this hellsite LESS?!

I keep getting jump scared by stupid autoplaying tumblr ads
