Tumblr new rules are up
Dec. 18th, 2018 09:34 am Yesterday, Tumblr's new rules regarding NSFW arrived to the site and... no one got deleted. Except they kind of did.
The new rules are simple: no NSFW content of any kind, except written. This doesn't mean that if you post NSFW you'll get deleted, in practice this means that your blog will be tagged as NSFW and the options of "don't let this blog appear in searchs" (Tumblr searchs included) are turned on... permanently, the owner of the blog can't change this options now.
In practice, blogs that have posted NSFW content are now invisible to everyone, and their avatar is the same for everyone of those blogs. Did you follow a NSFW blog content with your favourite 18+ fanart? Congratulations, you may continue to see their posts.
Do you want to find NSFW content for your favourite ship but you don't know where to find it? Well, sorry, you can no longer find it. Unless someone in your dash happens to reblog it, you won't be finding this kind of content anymore, which is a big blow to online fandom.
So... What now? Back to Deviantart to find that kind of fan content?
