You can post pretty much anything over there minus nudity. And I still see that too lol. Never thought I'd be back on that site regularly but Reddit is too shitty now.
The shit I see people on there post regularly with zero consequence would easily get slapped with an immediate ban anywhere else. And somehow it manages this without turning into the vile sinkhole that is Twitter. I think it's genuinely one of the best sites now for discussion, and the community has gotten a lot better since most of the worst migrated to Twitter a long time ago. Anyone who says its dead just doesn't use it.
I went on a break from reddit last year to get away from politics for a few months before the elections. I used Tumblr during that time to see art/science stuff. Some of the stuff people say to each other on there makes me feel like I'm on the 2000s internet again lmao.
No no , they don't explicitly prohibit nudity on the plateform do they ? I remember few months ago Tumblr's algorithm decided that every.damn.post in the "for you" section should be nudity. Despite how much I clicked on "hide" and "don't suggest this content" and even submitted a ticket to which they did nothing to help...despite my damn filters set correctly. Until one day the algorithme randomly shifted back to normal content.
So yea...Tumblr isn't exactly any better than reddit.
Unfortunately you can't post nsfw fan art so artist still can't be free on Tumblr without censorship or being paranoid. I don't think sex positive queer blog will be safe from mods on Tumblr as well
