They keep downgrading their dashboard and overall user experience. No matter how much the majority of users give feedback to the staff, they simply force these downgrades. Tumblr used to be an amazing and exceptional social media website, but the recent trend makes them seem to want throw away their uniqueness. At this point, if you're fleeing Twitter, it might be best to look into other options than tumblr - its future isn't looking bright.
After having data removed, they leave your name in their server, so the brand can be searched still off the back of your name. Delete means delete, or it does in certain parts of the world where brand piggybacking isn't consider good. Once you as them to delete, they should remove all data, morally and done without question. I now see why the customer service gets a low mark. Why do brands like to claim your data as their property, weird... and bit creepy.
Customer service gives you cut and paste replies, on the rare occasion they reply. They will not help you. I've just lost an account I've had for over a decade because I lost the phone number associated with it and even though there are dozens of methods of verifying my ownership (including me talking to them via the verified email address) their response is essentially that I'm out of luck. They want to keep your private information and sell it to advertisers. Never seen a tech company that have no backup methods that don't require you to be logged in to fix LOG IN ISSUES. Absolute nightmare.
One year ago, I subscribed to Tumblr. A few days later, my account was terminated. I didn't know why. I contacted the support, but no answer.
A few days ago, they sent me an email asking me to update my payment. Because I didn't have access to my account, I contacted them again. Still no answer
I honestly think this site and all is very under staffed.
I know there are a lot of people who use the site, but to not be able
To help someone that it'll take literal years for a reply is just downright sad.
Not to mention many people have been getting away with cyberbullying people.
Unless something changes, I don't recommend this website.
Compared to twitter you can say so much more on tumblr. A lot of trans and non-binary and all those other people have really ruined twitter. I appreciate being able to follow people on tumblr who educated me on things I can't learn on twitter because of all the crazy censorship. It's a good site for microblogging.
Expect 40+ spam bot notifications a day. If you report them, Tumblr management laughs in your face and does nothing to ban them. So you have 90% of the activity on the site literal spam bots and 10% snarky content farmers. It's not really much of an interactive community at all. Then there's the whole secondary blog thing with zero ability to comment as your secondary blog or follow others as your secondary blog. What's the point. The platform is rubbish. The management is rubbish. I wouldn't be shocked if all Tumblr was at this point in time is a laundering racket like Craigslist clearly is. This website and their trash phone app are a complete scam.
They are a horrible company unwilling to help their users. My email got deleted and they refuse to send me a password link to a new email address. There are blogs online which i have created ages ago and are associated with my name.
They're keeping my information public against my will.
They are a disgusting company.
Nestled amidst the bustling cityscape of Chandigarh lies a sanctuary for those battling one of society's most formidable foes: addiction. Nasha Mukti Kendra stands as a testament to resilience, offering a haven of healing and hope for individuals seeking to break free from the shackles of substance abuse.
I didn't want to use their site, but I was trying to follow some content that applies to my career. So to follow, they asked me to register. Fair enough, but then they asked my age. Like that's any of their business? I tried to input that my age was negative six, but they saw through that and gave me the boot. Maybe they should try to make a better first impression. Geez.
Answer: Freedom of expression, which has "now" been taken away. So I see no reason Tumblr is better than it's competitors.
Answer: Well, as an Artist I had a show exhibiting my work (in a very Puritan State). I had two pieces taken from the wall and turned backwards, so no one could see them. My pieces challenged thought and involved nudity. Tumblr, is now another "online" community turning pictures around so voices and messages cannot be seen or heard.
Answer: Newgrounds, Pillowfort, Amino Apps, and Twitter are all much better than Tumblr, although Twitter is still very risky so, keep your guard up.
