Hey guys I just finished datamining the tumblr app and found out some info on future updates @staff has in the works
Like what?
ok so the first thing I found was that they’re adding a new dislike button:
based on what I saw, tumblr’s dislike button works a little differently than typical dislike buttons. in addition to showing the number of dislikes on a post, if a user ever gets any more than 3 dislikes in total they will have their blog deleted immediately. this may seem harsh at first glance but I trust that the tumblr community wouldn’t abuse this power so this is a good change.
I swear if this is true I will have a panic attack I do not want my blog deleted
If it was true probably all the blogs with more than like 1000 followers would just vanish in minutes.
I noticed a lot of you guys were upset with this change to the app and I understand completely.
another thing I found out about this update is actually kind of cool though, soon we’re going to be able to change other people’s profile pictures. I’m not really sure why we’re being given this ability but I’m never one to complain about a new feature!
so you know how when you click on your avatar you see this:
…well now if you click on someone else’s avatar you can actually do this:
I’d like to personally ask my followers not to change MY profile pic, but this feature is pretty cool if you ask me because we can do stuff like this now lol:
