Welcome to /c/Tumblr

All the chaos of Tumblr, without actually going to Tumblr.

Rule 1: Be Civil, Not CursedThis isn’t your personal call-out post.

  • No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
  • No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
  • Keep it fun and weird, not mean-spirited

Rule 2: No Forbidden PostsSome things belong in the drafts forever. That means:

  • No spam or scams
  • No porn or sexually explicit content
  • No illegal content (don’t make this a federal case)
  • NSFW screenshots must be properly tagged

If you see a post that breaks the rules, report it so the mods can handle it. Otherwise just reblog and relax.

While it's fun to mock the boomers, new gens aren't particularly tech literate either. At my job, at one point, we recruited someone younger than me. I'm not particularly old but the industry is dominated by older people, ex-military, etc. Dude was on the tech side like me, but he had no awareness or ability to learn what certain buttons were or how to troubleshoot any issues. I learn things just by testing stuff out, but apparently no one else outside of specific demographics does the same.
