Things I Hate about Tumblr
#A partial list:
- Tumblr Radar on the Dashboard
- Recommended Blogs on the Dashboard
- Occasional promoted content on the website
- Constant promoted content on the iOS app
- When I try to post something using the Tumblr bookmarklet on Chrome, I can’t resize the posting window: when I drag it to the size I want, it instantly resizes itself
- Once I get something posted, instead of a simple confirmation message I get an outrageously, violently animated image of celebration, complete with falling confetti and a leaping avatar, as though I’ve just won the lottery
- Significantly inconsistent posting behavior among (a) the website, (b) the iOS app, © the share-sheet in iOS — for instance, the iOS app doesn’t recognize Markdown
I just don’t know whether I can put up with this crap any more. There’s so much of it.
