I don't blame the community for wanting to avoid enshittification. In an ideal world, everyone should.

But that's not what they're doing. They're not making any concrete protests to Tumblr's anti-privacy and anti-user changes. They refuse to search for and create Tumblr alternatives. They only cry (on Tumblr) about how Tumblr is the only site left for them, please don't add this feature my autism and depression can't handle it blah blah blah. They're actively sabotaging monetization strategies that are user-friendly. They are - as a low-tech demographic that would rather have a "free" service than a paid user-friendly one - the reason why Tumblr has to enshittify.

Used Tumblr for 11 years because Tumblr has my favorite microblogging format. No longer frequently. The user quality dropped massively after December 2018.
