FACTS ABOUT THINGS:

  • TUMBLR WAS GETTING TOO EXPENSIVE. THEIR OPTIONS WERE TO EITHER SELL IT OR SHUT IT DOWN.
  • YAHOO SAYS THEY’RE GOING TO LET IT RUN AS AN INDEPENDENT BUSINESS. IN THEORY, NOTHING WILL CHANGE EXCEPT FOR WHO’S LEGALLY OWNING IT.
  • NOW EVERYONE CALM DOWN.

i’m glad about this #but please remember this is also what LJ users were told when Six Apart bought them #and now LJ has been run into the ground

And tbh, LJ had a lot more users actually building the site… (volunteer coders and everything)

my thoughts: 
People who claim that this is end of Tumblr are over-reacting. Nothing is certain.
Perhaps with their massive capital, Yahoo! could make the changes that Tumblr users are always clamoring for.
Yes there will likely be more ads, but there is also adblocker so I don’t see the problem here.
Yahoo! already has an Instant Messaging platform that they could likely easily mesh with Tumblr’s architecture.
There will be more users if Tumblr takes off as intended. Really this puts responsibility on us to gracious and welcoming. We are not better than them. Not because we were here first, nor for any other reason imaginable.
I just wanted to throw my two cents out there. Take it or leave it as you will.

^perfect.

It could be worse… it could have been facebook buying it up. In which case there would be a lot more certainty of forced user integration.

  • plot twist: yahoo buys tumblr and we get proper blocking features, lockable posts, a sent folder in messages/fanmail with a better interface, ability to search multiple tags, removal of the post and message limits, proper search engines for likes/archives and removing that bloody "reblog as a link" option.
