Tumblr tags

Seem to be missing on a lot of posts lately. Has something changed over there? I visit only occasionally anymore, but I wanted to use Blacklist on XKitt and block a tv show I don't care about, and the post(s) had no tags. Some still seem to, but a lot don't, but it's like I can't see them, rather than they aren't there.

But who knows. Tumblr is so weird anymore. Also, a 'shiny new post editor' keeps popping up, wanting me to try it. Anybody using it? What's it do?

Tumblr now has its own built in blocking system. So it'll block a post if OP has one of your blacklists in the tag no matter whose blog you're seeing it on.

The new post editor is just the mobile version of post editor for the desktop. It doesn't differentiate between different types of posts anymore (picture, text, video, etc) but you'll still be able to post those different media formats.

Yes. I still see them, sort of. It's a little blank rectangle with 'blocked because it contained (word)'. Which is fine.

But my problem is, posts with no tags at all...are impossible to block. And I just don't get the no-tag thing, unless suddenly it's not cool to tag things on Tumblr anymore. But i really don't want to look at dozens of posts for tv shows I don't follow or whatever, and have no real clue how to block them if there are no tags to use. Annoying.

Ok - so, the tagging thing is very dependent on specific users. Some are great at it, some are ok at it, and some just don't bother. The increase in people not bothering is probably partly to do with people getting sick of getting attacked by randos for not tagging their pomegranates and partly because COVID-times led to a huge boom of stream of consciousness posting and partly because tagging can be a pain in the ass on mobile depending on the day and how the planets are aligned.

However, tumblr's new nifty blocking feature will let you block a specific word or phrase in a post and it's not dependent on the tags. It's an actual content tag. So if you're sick of hearing about Tiger & Bunny, you can go to settings and put "tiger & bunny" in the content filter and it will get rid of any post with that phrase in the text or in the tags. If you don't put it in quotes though, you'll also filter out all posts that mention tigers and bunnies.

It's not perfect, but it's got perks. Like, I can put the name of that one user whose fanart always gets reblogged and I hate it into the content filter and boom! no more cringy fanart!

Interesting.
I do everything on my PC or laptop, so the vagaries and drawbacks of the mobile app are not familiar to me. But they always seem to be legion.

Thanks for the info!

Tumblr censors "Bernard Minet" as a tag--the guy who made most of the cheesy French anime openings/endings in the 90ties--and I have no idea what.
I'm miffed about "lesbians" "Le Bleu est une couleur chaude", anything with "kink" or "fetish" but at least I understand where that came from. But That guy?? why???

Yeah, or at least used to, not sure they have fixed it: because obviously it's synonymous with "porn". (I hate this site.)
