Why did they ban porn?

because they realized the damage they've done by allowing (((it)))

almost every bullshit thing that happens online is passed off with the excuse of owning the pedos, or "combatting extremism" but thats kind of been on the way out lately

They were forced to. I swear america is on some kind of crusade against nipples.

Apple kept banning them from the iOS app store. Even after the porn ban Apple still came up with reasons to remove them from the app store. It seems someone at apple has a grudge against tumblr, probably some mentally ill tranny who got banned for being too mentally ill considering apple is a hive of degeneracy

Tumblr was sold to verizon in 2017 and verizon management wanted to go clean. Larger company with less of an appetite for risk in their business portfolio.

It's an insurance policy to make selling it later down the line easier

I don't know but it killed their website. When all my rule34 artists got banned and moved to pixiv, baraag and twitter I left the platform and so did most of the people using it.

apple

apple kept banning them
i don't blame them either, considering how awful it was back then
most of those people went to reddit and twitter and i heard tumblr is kinda okay now

There was too much CP and Tumblr moderation is even more incompetent than you can imagine. Even now you can still find pedos soliciting on Tumblr, although they no longer post the content publicly.

It was banking institutions, and more specifically legal liability for things like revenge porn and CP. You have to follow the money. The financial institutions collectively decided they were only going to allow porn companies with airtight contracts to receive financial support, and everyone else was too risky.

I dunno but MAN it fuckin destroyed their website, does anyone even go there except to look at porn? Everyone I know moved on to bdsmlr or similar

Really, the funniest thing about this is that they banned porn because they feared that Apple would throw them out of their store
But even at that time twitter had way more porn on their servers than tumblr, and is now the goto site for western and Japanese porn artists, and they obviously don't give a shit about Apple

it removed a good amount of degenerate coomers. its so much nicer now.

yeah but the thing is that tumble was degenerate coomers OR weird 13 year old girls who like sherlock Holmes too much, now that the coomers are gone you can finish my sentence

to funnel users to twitter. single vector are easier to police

They literally almost fixed their website by doing that.

The odd thing is tumbr is still create for low key gay porn.

One idea was to spread the radical feminism that had built up to other corners of the internet.

Tumblr sounds better than Twitter then

so much based child porn it scared away the glowies

I don't get it either. A man can have exposed giant fat man tities and it's okay but heaven forbid a woman who is flat as a board show nipples. Little Timmy isn't going to be scarred by seeing a nipple.
