    Tumblr didn’t die. It’s still around. It’s biggest issue is it’s shitty search function, not lack of porn (which they did need to remove due to all the cp on there)

      There are ways to handle illegal porn other than a blanket ban on all porn. Pretty much every site can manage it, including reddit and twitter.

        To be fair pornhub had to nuke the majority of their user submitted content because they couldn’t evidence that it wasn’t illegal. I can understand a company that doesn’t actually want to be a porn site just blanket banning.

        Er… Tumblr spent many years trying to combat all the cp on their site. They were losing, so banning porn entirely just made the most sense. Did it suck? Yea. But it wasn’t the end of Tumblr.
