Tumblr's new anti-adult tactic: disable the publish button - GoFuckYourself.com

Forkbeard · 08-08-2013, 08:15 AM

There's a lot of buzz on blogs and twitter about Tumblr deleting a whole lot of self-promo blogs with adult themes (especially camgirl blogs). But the new wrinkle is, there's at least one adult link (to the Extra Lunch Money site) that you just can't save in Tumblr; if you try, the Publish action fails with a vague error message.

My question is, has anybody noticed this behavior with any other links/domains on Tumblr? It would be fun to compile a list. Clips4Sale seems to still work, I tried that one.

Tumblr is a pile of shit for porn nowadays. Soup.io is a great alternative.

I wouldn't trust tumblr, now that Yahoo owns it. They're going to block porn completely any day.

Like other companies they've used adult to grow and then spit it out sooner or later
