Snippet of Tumblr CEO wanting to shut down the site in May

ponett Follow 16h ago raises awareness within the team. When I'm back to work in May this will definitely be on my mind, as well as if we should continue to invest Tumblr at all if it's going to harbor such toxicity and harassment. The mob misinformation and harassment makes people scared to work on Tumblr, and likely drives away scores of good creators, Blaze posters, advertisers, and subscribers-the folks who will make Tumblr a sustainable endeavor. truly f------ incredible that the ceo actually thought it was a good idea to post "well if you're all going to be so mean to me then maybe there shouldn't even be a tumblr." incredible that his lawyers haven't told him to shut the f--- up and stop posting through it yet prokopetz 16h ago Completing his transformation from self-styled visionary CEO to early 2000s forum administrator by deleting the entire site because someone called him a nasty name.

Predestrogen's alt and mention of other account being deleted (teh alt is deleted now as well)

predesterone @predstrogen is gone now its avery, rita, predstrogen. im here on my alt now. every account ive had has been deleted in february/march like clockwork. madhopz, sadhopz and now predstrogen feel free to follow me here and please share the reason given was "sexually explicit material" which isnt true. anything sexually explicit that i post is properly flagged with a mature and sexual themes community label, anything else was a reblog and therefore should be covered by the OP, not me whos reblogging it. this is my 4th account now because of this, theyve treated me like s--- for this multiple times. f--- tumblr @staff for letting this happen contnuously, im seeing a pattern and its not changing Hello, Your account or blog has been suspended for sharing sexually explicit materials (where sharing includes posting, reblogging, or sending the material - by messages, asks, or post submissions to other users). This is strictly prohibited on Tumblr as per our Community Guidelines: Sexually Explicit Material. Visual depictions of sexually explicit acts (or content with an overt focus on genitalia) are not allowed on Tumblr. That includes pictures, videos, GIFs, drawings, CGI, or anything similar. Creating new blogs or accounts with this same subject matter or content will result in immediate account termination. If you believe we've taken this action in error, you may contact us here detailing your concerns. Tumblr Trust & Safety even worse, i submitted a support ticket about harrassment and stalking TWO MONTHS AGO on 22 december, and they never got back to me about it. but they can gladly delete my account, even after recognising on the 1st of january that my account does NOT break TOS and should not be flagged Hello predstrogen, We've reviewed the classification appeal of your Tumblr and have determined that it does not contain adult content per our Community Guidelines.

Tumblr CEO Dming people who criticised his choices

sharkface Follow 2d ago Why am I being DMed by the CEO of tumblr.com for stating my personal opinion that the response to this situation is being handled poorly. I am a random college student with less than 1,000 followers. sharkface 20 ago 1:29 < photomatt "I still do not think most people will think that constitutes a threat. It'd be perfectly appropriate to have removed the post, but I don't think terminating her blog was a proportionate response to this." You can start a social media site and run it with those rules! However it's not the rules of this site. Today at 12:56 AM GIF I do not understand why you are concerned with my opinion, I am an individual user with no power to enforce the way I think the site should be run. I sincerely don't know why you would care enough to humor my reply with such a personal response, let alone something that I don't even really feel is all that relevant to what I said to begin with. I could do that, sure, and clearly it isn't how this site is run. My opinion regardless is that this response is disproportionate and unprofessional. You do not have to care about it, I have no power over you, : Say something A I'm sorry but I just think DMing me at all is such an objective waste of time.

Tumblr (or specifically Automattic) settled with the NYCCHR regarding Tumblr’s terribly implemented porn ban targeting LGBTQ folk more than it should. (posted February 20th 2024)

fishermod For those who don't remember, here's the lawsuit two years ago where Tumblr (or specifically Automattic) settled with the New York City Commission on Human Rights regarding Tumblr's terribly implemented p--- ban targeting LGBTQ folk more than it should. Here's an excerpt detailing what the NYCCHR ordered Tumblr to do: The settlement gives Tumblr 180 days to hire an expert on sexual orientation and gender identity (SOGI) issues and provide related training to moderators. It must also hire someone with experience in this area as well as expertise in image classification, who will review Tumblr's moderation algorithms to see if they're more likely to flag LGBTQ content. As part of an overall review, Tumblr will reexamine 3,000 old cases where a user successfully appealed a takedown, looking for patterns that could indicate bias. Now, on a totally unrelated note, here's the complaint page for reporting discrimination to the NYCCHR. Completely unrelated to what's going on right now or the rest of this post, I swear.

usually i think people are misguided in putting the blame for corporate decisions directly at the feet of the figurehead ceo but in this case he is genuinely detested

tinystepsforward Follow matt is supposed to be on f------ sabbatical rn. the last time he refused to log off and caused problems swinging his d--- around was on the wordpress.org twitter hawking a fundraiser for his birthday and claiming that as founder he didn't need to get permission fr marketing or otherwise worry about not offending people. this time he promised everyone at automattic he'd actually take a break (and become a chess grandmaster in 3 months, which, whatever, dumb techbro ego bs). instead he logged back in almost immediately, berated one of the apps teams publicly, refused to log off, then did a bunch of blog posts and interviews saying s--- ranging from "Capitalism is, as Nicholas Stern says, the best way to take care of people we don't know." through "essentially [queer or Black groups are] tribes or identities that separate us. And so part of me really identifies with Martin Luther King being, I want my children judged on the content of their character, not the color of their skin." i am, thank f------ everything, no longer working for him, and yet. i quit before leadership could force my lead to fire me. a disproportionate amount of queer people have been fired or forced to leave in the last year, bc he has personally been sending messages pressuring all leads to pick a "weak link" and going on about culture fit in ways that are f------ loaded. and then there's the exodus of ex- leads who have been saying clearly that they quit instead of being forced to fire people, and the whole team of quality engineers that was axed late last year (oh but it's not a layoff, they all magically had bad performance despite great individual performance reviews, one of them being on parental leave, and all of them being blindsided), and so on and so on... honestly it f------ sucks bc for a long time i was able to say, despite matt personally being behind half the bad ideas that have plagued tumblr in the last few years, that i think automattic was still doing a better job than most other companies who could afford to take on a liability like tumblr would do. and i thought that about wordpress.com too, and kept recommending it bc automattic's ethics were at least marginally better than most companies in the same space not built on open source. there were people i knew who were working on the transmisogynist moderation issue, but [gestures] decisionmakers have decided they're selling tumblr data (including private data!) to midjourney instead of doing anything but doubling down i guess.now that matt's weighed in it's not gonna get better. the queer staff remaining have used what leverage they had in every way possible and stopped being listened to a long time ago. support staff are paid far too little for what they deal with. i get messages from my ex-colleagues regularly because they're all trying desperately to jump ship. anyway usually i think people are misguided in putting the blame for corporate decisions directly at the feet of the figurehead ceo but in this case he is genuinely detested and keeps personally making the worst decisions and doubling down on them autolenaphilia Follow I want everyone to know that after looking at matt's non-tumblr blog the birthday fundraiser debacle apparently happened this january and he started his sabbatical at the beginning of february. And now he is doing this. Dude is spiraling.

I think I speak for everyone when I say we would appreciate some insight and transparency into the content moderation systems.

cryptotheism Follow As a trans person who pays the bills hawking my Patreon on this site, Photomatt's behavior has been disappointing to say the least. I hope staff can come to a more reasonable conclusion. cryptotheism I think I speak for everyone when I say we would appreciate some insight and transparency into the content moderation systems. ... Having a blog you've run for 7+ years nuked out of nowhere, with no communication, reason, or recourse beyond navigating a maze of broken automated systems, is pretty frustrating. I can't really blame users for saying some TOS-breaking s---, because sometimes it feels like the only way to communicate with staff here is publicly. cryptotheism Matt for the love of God stop f------ posting and talk to your PR team.

y'all know that the explanations that matt gave as to why he banned are predstrogen aren’t for us, right?

notasocialismjoke fine, i'll say my two cents. y'all know that the explanations that matt gave as to why he banned are predstrogen aren't for us, right? saying it was because of sexual content or exploding a car with hammers, or whatever. justification is irrelevant to his actions; he's an authority; metaphorically he's an abusive parent, and one of his children talked back so he hit her. the justification isn't for us; it's for transphobes. it's for people who have already learned a predisposition against trans people, who will listen and agree that it's justified. she broke the rules! anyone who breaks the rules gets banned, duh. it's for people who won't think twice about how many trans women have been banned, censored, etc., who won't realize that this is just the latest in a pattern of attacks because, because anyone who got censored is just an individual who broke the rules. he's telling them what to think. his words are targeted at the people who will listen to him without second guessing them. the rules are not there to protect us. the purpose of a system is what it does. the words of the rules are not there as an explanation of their purpose; the words are the language and justification that the oppressor uses to keep their followers loyal. the rules themselves exist to keep us in line. the explanation is not for us; the rule is. (this post was written by a trans woman/girlthing/whatever.)

How is saying you want your job to be "liquidating f-ggots like you two” not against hate speech rules or community guidelines

transfem-juice Hey so if "I hope you get exploded with hammers" or whatever is enough to get not only get just one account permanently deleted but to get every new account you make permanently deleted, wiping an entire person past present and future off of the site, does that mean that all harrassment meeting and surpassing the same comically low level is now retroactively a permabanable offense, and therefore every f------ terf on this god damn site that's ever left even a single hate message should have their entire existence past present and future wiped from tumblr? Just checking if there's a transphobic (and transmisogynistic) double standard or not @photomatt, since you're so convinced that tumblrs transphobia is just misinformation self-loving-vampire On July 10th of 2023 I got an email on tumblr regarding a neo-nazi I randomly spotted and reported was not violating community guidelines with his comments towards another user and therefore no action would be taken. This led to me asking this in reply, including a direct quote of what the neo-nazi said. How is saying you want your job to be "liquidating f------ like you two" not agaisnt the hate speech rules or community guidelines? Like, can you explain that to me please? [Image reads: "How is saying you want your job to be "liquidating f------ like you two" not against hate speech rules or community guidelines? Like, can you explain that to me please?"] I never got an answer.
