matchgirl42:apple-cinnnamon:matchgirl42:So I contacted tumblr support and told them that the new dashboard changes has made tumblr unsafe for me and they’re driving users away, and they basically told me “too bad, so sad, sucks to be you.”LikeIf anyone was operating under the delusion that this hellsite would somehow be better or at least not worse with new owners that’s now thoroughly debunked.Seriously exploring creating a social media alternative at this point, with all of the good parts of tumblr and none of the massive fuckery, because fuck this shit.Captions:My email to support:“Y'all need to bring the old dashboard back.  The new one makes tumblr completely unusable.  Xkit’s postblock and blacklist are no longer functioning with the new dashboard for starters, which means all of the effort I’ve put into making my dashboard a safe place and avoid all the pedos, nazis and abusive members on here is now useless, and my dashboard is now a minefield.  I’m going to boycott using tumblr until this is fixed, why you guys keep messing it up instead of leaving something that’s working alone I’ll never understand but you’re just gonna keep driving people away with this nonsense fuckery.“Their response:“Hello,Thanks for reaching out about the new dashboard. We previously did allow folks with XKit installed to use the old dashboard, but as of July 1, 2020 that option no longer exists.The XKit team has been working on a complete overhaul in order to make their extensions compatible with the new dashboard, and they’ve made a lot of progress. You can check to see which extensions have been updated here:https://github.com/new-xkit/XKit/issues/1802While we don’t plan on bringing back the old dashboard, know that your feedback is helping to shape the future of Tumblr. If you have any additional feedback, or a specific feature you’d like to see supported, please let us know.Best,DaveTumblr Community Supportwww.tumblr.com/help”sorry mate but you sound like a whole karen and a half. if you’d come at me like that i’d given you an actual “too bad, so sad, sucks to be you”, like… your dashboard’s a minefield? maybe reconsider who you’re following lmfao or, for god’s sake, make use of thisChastising someone for being angry/not “polite enough” is a Karen move.  “Oh you’ll get farther if you’re civil” pffffft.  “Being civil” means “acting in a way where you can be safely ignored without consequence.”  “Being civil” gets you bupkiss when the other party is mired in capitalism and thus has no shame.And guess what?Tumblr-based filtered tags and filtered post content do not:keep high-note reblog chains with content from abusive people you’ve blocked from appearing on your dash, it’s like a slap in the face every damn time, I have those people blocked for a reason, they’re abusive, they’re bigots, they’re pedos, they’re nazis, they’re trolls, that taints everything they do even if they’re saying something I would otherwise agree with, and tumblr has done fuck-all to address them infesting this hellsite besides the block feature which, unlike the block feature on twitter for example, doesn’t actually keep those people and their content off your dashfeed.filter by username like xkit’s blacklist doeskeep stuff that isn’t tagged off of my dash like xkit’s postblock does (sure, the first one is there until you block it, but afterwards reblogs of that post never appears again.)And BTW?  You only have access to those two settings on your own blog(s) to get your screenshot from, which means you’re telling someone else to use stuff that you yourself aren’t using, which is another total Karen move.  Just like your entire blog has a total Karen motiff, JFC.Maybe think about how you shouldn’t go around calling other people Karens when you’re acting like one yourself.BLOCKED.I mean, good lord.  Imagine seeing someone’s post about how a capitalist company has broken the tools their users rely on to stay safe on their website and avoid literal pedos and nazis and bigots and other assholes that said capitalist company refuses to do anything to keep off their platform, and being like “wow you seriously weren’t nice enough in your response to that.”Like JEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESUS what a Karen (and a dick) move.Y’all wonder why this website is such a hellscape, look no futher than people like this rolling over for any fuckery Tumblr wants to unleash instead of holding them to account and their metaphorical feet to the fire. -- source link
