After finding out that explicit blogs were no longer appearing in the master search, I checked both the blog specific searches and tags.
Neither work.
If you click any of the tags below my post you get nothing. If you try to search my site itself for specific content you also get nothing.
NSFW is basically now invisible on tumblr.
The only way you can find a blog is to either get linked from somewhere else, or see a reblog already on your dash, but even then any NSFW artist that uses tags is basically wasting time as the tags will not allow anyone to search your content. You basically become a dashboard feed to your followers with no search or tag potential, and that’s it.
At this point i almost wish they had deleted my tumblr during their ban spree
Yuuuuuuuup, can’t find my stuff unless its reblogged. Shifting my attention a bit more to twitter nowdays because of this sort of shit. Might start reblogging art of people I follow more to help people see eachother more but it does kind of create the echo chamber of artists rather than really expanding the realm of influence.
Well damn.
I just want to note somthing for my followers and others. porn blogs have never been really searchable on tumblr. it always has been an offsite to here type thing. for me atleast. i realize most don’t link offsite shit on there post so they may have been searchable. but i never have. so honestly? this doesnt effect me.
I agree with Mr Tektite, the amount of viper porn im missing out on that exists on tumblr that I can only find through source links on image host sites that never shows up when searching for every possible viper related search term.
(Using viper as an example because its so juicy but rare. Many other tags don’t show up either)
Yeah, like Mr. Tektite said, NSFW stuff has been unsearchable on here for quite some time, especially if you used outside links
