Did Tumblr Really Block the Bara Tag? What’s Going On?!
So, the drama continues with Tumblr! Many users are scratching their heads (and possibly crying a little) over whether the beloved bara tag is officially blocked. Let’s dive into this hot mess, shall we?
First things first, it seems like Tumblr, in its infinite wisdom, decided to go all-in on sanitizing its content; and by that, we mean kicking NSFW content to the curb. While the platform did have a bit of a reputation as a haven for more risqué material, the sweeping changes were noteworthy. This included blocking any NSFW content from appearing in searches. Why? According to their new policies, they’re trying to wipe out some serious issues, including child pornography, which gets a loud, resounding “thank you!” from the community.
However, the bad news? Many folks think they threw the baby out with the bathwater. Users are reporting that entire swathes of their NSFW content, including those lovable bara posts, are disappearing. You might be asking: is this a permanent thing or simply an overreaction? Well, reports suggest that this is part of Tumblr’s efforts to comply with safety concerns, but many are left wondering whether there’s room for those *awesome bara* posts in a ‘clean’ Tumblr.
And here’s another kicker: the search results are a dumpster fire. Users are complaining that even when they input tags they know should deliver results, it’s as if Tumblr decided to have a little laugh and send them on a wild goose chase instead. Want to find some spicy bara content? Good luck with that!
For those who are still pining for the good ol’ days, it feels like an uphill battle to locate anything remotely NSFW without a linked URL. The irony? Tumblr was almost synonymous with that sort of content, like peanut butter and jelly, yet now it poses a dilemma as the platform continues to alienate its core users.
So, whether you’re still hanging in there, or planning to bolt for greener (and naughtier) pastures, it looks like we’ll need to stay on our toes. If you’re thinking, “Hey, where can I find my beloved bara now?”, it might be time to check out some alternative platforms.
