Tumblr lost its chance

Twitter is the new tumblr

Techincally yeah

Its been the new tumblr since Tumblr shut that label off

Which is kinda sad ngl like you left a site because of the nsfw stuff got taken off

It's not sad if that's the only reason you're visiting

Plus, I can see why Tumblr did it

I mean, for NSFW artists and their devoted fans it makes sense. Why support a site that refuses to host your content?

Makes sense

Tumblr had illegal nsfw content

So does Twitter

Yep

Maybe not as bad

I think twitter has a better handle on security

On Tumblr those illegal things went through the app filter

Which is why they shut it down

That’s questionable with the new management. Especially with the rumors of major staff cuts coming.

Yeah elon musk is taking over

But besides that, it's a lot better than Tumblr handling with that type of content

Ill stick around for a while before i say duck all and get myself banned while still doing morally acceptable things

That’s on the user, not on Twitter itself. “Safe harbor” laws exist to remove any liability on their part. The user would be the one in trouble. The only reason they would refuse to host nsfw content would be if they didn’t want to. Likely for brand and marketing purposes.

My understanding was that Tumblr purged because of Apple cracking down on NSFW apps

Because it violated the App Store TOS, yes

I mean, wouldn't a lack of security over illegal porn cause damage to their brand?

Also wouldn't it scare away investors?

Potentially, but there’s only so much you can do. People will post what they will post.

Of course not, but you can limit it

Policing social media is a difficult task even with bots

Yeah and maybe Tumblr bots weren't good enough for the task

I mean, you find me a bot that can accurately analyze a work of art
