Tumblr is a place to express yourself, discover yourself, and bond over the stuff you love. Whether it’s fandoms or philosophy, fashion or felines, Tumblr is where your interests connect you with your people.
EXPRESS YOURSELF — Post photos, GIFs, text, videos, live videos, audio, anything. — Make your own GIFs. Cover them in stickers and text, if you like.
BE YOURSELF — Look however you want. Customize your Tumblr’s colors, fonts, layout, everything. — Follow whatever topics you’re interested in. Find new ones you didn’t even know existed.
CONNECT WITH YOUR PEOPLE — Join millions of people in millions of communities across millions of #tags. — See something you love? Reblog it to your Tumblr and start a conversation. — Start a private conversation with your friends in messaging. — Or just follow, if you’re feeling shy. No big deal.

pointless.
absolutely disgusted with this app. thousands upon thousands of users have discovered this app and used it as a means of self expression and discovery. this censorship is a HUGE step backwards. this site was always for 17+. this app has become a hateful, bigoted, sexist and overall terrible app which is run by horrible and non understanding people. what a mistake that is being made.

There's no point anymore
So many of us used tumblr because it was one of the only platforms we could comfortably express ourselves on. Now that that's no longer, I have like 0.00% of a reason to use it anymore
