Would you rather pikachu have skin. Just bare skin. Smooth expanse of rubbery yellow skin. Is pikachu a naked mole rat to you people. A hairless cat that is 60% botox. Is that what you fucking want
do y’all remember before direct messages tumblr had a dumbass ask limit of 10 per hour and communication was impossible until they introduced dumbass fan mail and we were basically sending telegraphs back in forth trying to communicate those were…dark times
Do y’all remember when they finally gave us direct messages and instead of doing it normally, they gave it to a few people at a time and we had to infect each other with it like a virus
I also remember how little appreciation there was for this drastic improvement.
I’ve gotta say as a developer, it terrifies me how much of this user base seems to hate all of the people behind the scenes, paint them all with a single brush, and passive-aggressively tag an announcement account that I can confirm nobody checks the notifications for (I have a friend who used to work there).
It’s a wonder anyone who works there actually uses the site. Yeah there have been bad decisions, and they’ve had plenty of bugs, but the sheer vitriol and willingness to believe anything of the staff combined with the usual lack of fact checking makes me feel really bad for everyone who works there.
