some people’s blogs are being incorrectly flagged as explicit so if you would like to check your status, you can look it up on postlimit.com.
if you have been incorrectly marked as nsfw, you can appeal before tumblr permanently filters you as such and your blog is set back to default settings prior to december 18th here.
Everyone: this is how I found out I was flagged and marked explicit. Check your stuff out and make sure you’re good to go.
Like almost everyone in here, I freaked out about the latest Tumblr message. Although I don’t really have NSFW edits (that Makoto’s birthday edit was the closest to being NSFW and it’s not flagged, the fuck?! XD), I am worried about Tumblr dying. I am looking for an alternative where to post my edits because twitter is not good for that. Pillowfort looks promising but I’m not sure whether to go there or not yet. I’ll decide surely before the 17th December and so make an edit on this post if it’s the case.
So, I’ll probably stay here, continuing to post edits for now seeing how it goes…
I do have a Twitter though where I post/retweet a lot of stuff I like (so not only SouMako) here: @ jinbeizaki
I have a Picarto account too where I stream me editing SouMako also here : @ jinbeizaki
(Basically if you see a “Jinbeizaki” account somewhere, expect this person to be me XD)
I am also wondering about making a SouMako discord group guys so if you’re interested definitely ask me more about it. I have a poll about it on twitter. If I do end up creating one, I’ll share it here obviously.
Prompt:both Makoto and Haruka are caught by a shower near by the Samezuka Academy and Rin takes them in his dorm room where Sosuke is, lends Haruka something to change in but the only clothes who will actually fit Makoto are Sousuke’s.
I’m over with Soumako-having-a-thing-for-Mako-in-his-sweater headcanon. So be it.
Basically, because I know Mobile is bad with links, the article points out hat the broad, “sfw only, no titties allowed” wave on the internet in recent years is largely due to Apple’s absolute stranglehold on the App Store. Apple has strict guidelines about NSFW content that choke creators right out of mainstream social media, even on sites like Reddit, for users of their products:
But there are fewer and fewer mainstream sites and services that support porn and adult content, and much of that attitude has grown out of Apple’s strict controls over the App Store and the iOS ecosystem. Steve Jobs famously suggested that “folks who want porn can buy an Android phone,” and Apple has repeatedly leveraged its unprecedented power over millions of smartphones to sanitize the apps that are available on iPhones. Apple does not allow apps “that contain user generated content that is frequently pornographic.” In 2016, Apple famously deleted all third-party Reddit apps that allowed users to toggle NSFW posts on and off; even now, it is impossible to access porn on an iOS Reddit app unless you jump through various hoops.
remember though that this anger isn’t about Being Horny On Main, it’s about sex workers, their platforms and followers, NSFW creators and their art, and adult content communities that are continually being shoved out of spaces they created in recent years:
Tumblr’s leadership seems to believe that the community using Tumblr for adult content is the same as any other porn site—showing a serious disconnect with how its users actually interact and connect on its own platform. “We will leave it to them and focus our efforts on creating the most welcoming environment possible for our community,” he wrote.
The value of Tumblr for NSFW creators and fans was in the autonomy to curate something original, and the freedom to express and share what they’re into—something that can’t be replaced by algorithmically-suggested porn on the rest of the internet.
it was mentioned before somewhere else, but 20% of Tumblr’s traffic is brought in by content they’re now flagging as “adult”
This is yet another example of a platform ignoring adult content when it helps the platform flourish, and then leaving those users out to dry when it’s time to crack down for some monetary gain or face-saving. In addition to being a terrible way to treat your user base, banning adult content on Tumblr will stifle a lot of creativity.
The communities that will feel this change the most will be the already-marginalized. “Tumblr banning adult content is a huge loss for the LGBTQ community, especially those with overlapping marginalized identities,” Kitty Stryker, a queer porn performer and consent activist, told Motherboard in an email. “For many, that’s the one place we could find porn that represents us, made by indie performers who created their own content outside of an often racist, transmisogynist, fatphobic industry. Tumblr was where our content could exist without pushing us into the restrictions of a misogynist, male dominated workplace.”
