After 2 weeks of multiple health screens and asking everyone to quarantine, I surprised my closest inner circle with a trip to a private island where we could pretend things were normal just for a brief moment in time.
Here we are back again for a 48 hour log off protest of the current version of Post+.

Exhibits A, B, C, D, E
Tumblr recently announced a new feature called Post+ meant to help content creators make money while keeping a cut to help maintain the site. Not a bad idea, right?
The problem is that tumblr actively encouraged the use of Post+ in conjunction with fan works. Which is, despite the way they continue to side step it, highly illegal. Not enough people are aware of that fact.
Our mission is to force tumblr to either rebrand the Post+ feature as something for original content ONLY and/or offer a means to help the site survive outside of monetizing fan work. We want the see tumblr thrive but Post+ has the potential for ruining everything. Give us a better option, @staff ! In fact, HERE are some options!
Banner credit to @adairctedgibbgirl ! Thank you!
You can also spread the word on ALL social media (Twitter/TikTok/Facebook/Reddit etc) and reblog this post. Another option, if you’re using the mobile app, is to leave an honest review (be polite, be concise, don’t spam) on the App Store of your choice! The best and easiest way to protest is DON’T USE POST+!
We got tumblr to temporarily hide the original Post+ posts and possibly made wip a thing. So who knows?
Keep checking @postplus-protest for updates and further info, especially updates to this post! Thank you, all of you, for participating or boosting!
Remember to reblog, use the hashtags #postplusprotest and #tumblrlogoff2021, and SPREAD THE WORD TO OTHER SOCIAL MEDIA!
ren be like whoo!!! weed!!! I have a back pack!!! let's slap people actually!!! I am possessed!!! girl help!!! whoo!!!
real quick! rb and put in the tags what you came for and what you stayed for on the blog of the person u rbed this from
i havent unfollowed bc i like laughing at how pathetic everything u post is. hope that helps !
Hello! I think you may have sent this to the wrong blog. The blog you may be looking for is @/roadkillrabiez. This kind of thing happens all the time because the URLs are so similar, so don't worry about it!! Hope you have a great day :)
alex doodles bc i’ve replayed the first half of oxenfree twice this week
SOMEBODY NAMED HEYVAGINAHEAD LIKED ONE OF MY POSTS. VAGINAHEAD IF YOURE SEEING THIS I LOVE YOU
weed beanies playlist i made ages ago but never posted. enjoy, my little gay people https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5W20wWMrEeufV8bWdERvPm?si=ee8993af80a64fae
idk if you know the game Oxenfree, but any of the characters from that?
I did play it back in the day actually :) loved alex and clarissa the most
massive brain headcanon: japanese is alexs first language and rens picked up enough from her that they can have casual conversations while speaking it. they constantly exploit this to gossip without anyone knowing what theyre talking about. this drives jonas insane
Fill out the survey on the original Post Plus post (be polite, don’t spam, but GET YOUR POINT ACROSS that we don’t want this). Since we mean business, it’s time to hit them where it hurts; Ad Revenue.
We’re proposing a 24 hour log off as the main event of phase one.
The protest starts by logging off on August 6th, 2021 at 12am Eastern Time (US). Here’s a quick chart to help figure out when you log out. AUGUST 6th, 2021 12 am Eastern Time (US) 4 am UTC 5 am BST/London 6 am Central Europe Time 7 am Moscow Standard Time 9:30 am Indian Standard Time 12 Noon Hong Kong Time/Australian Western Time 1 pm Japan Standard Time 1:30 pm Australian Central Time 2 pm Australian Eastern Time
AUGUST 5th, 2021
11 pm Central Time (US) 10 pm Mountain Time (US) 9 pm Pacific Time (US)
THE END TIME IS 24 HOURS FROM THE START TIME!
So that means if you log off at say, 6 am Central Europe Time you’ll log back in at 6 am Central Europe Time on August 7th. We’d prefer if if there is no posting, no queues, no likes, and no reblogs during this period.
Like this post, share it, and use the hashtags #tumblrlogoff2021 and/or #postplusprotest on ANY and ALL social media. If you’re using the mobile version, you can always leave an honest review on the app center of your choice (once again: be polite, don’t spam, but GET YOUR POINT ACROSS!).
Tumblr’s primary focus is on FAN content (whether any of us want to admit it or not). Putting these kinds of contents behind patreon like paywalls is a terrible idea and the legality is NOT in the user or their subscribers favor. You can absolutely get in legal trouble for what tumblr is proposing with this new feature. There’s also the worry about the site’s (poor) security and access to Post Plus users bank information. Do you really want a site that lacks a functioning search function and whose userbase routinely get hacked to have your credit card information? No, you really don’t.
Maybe, maybe not. It’s an attempt at doing something to combat tumblr’s impending self-inflicted demise.
There’s a time zone checker linked in a previous post if you need it and I’ll try to fix any mistakes to times as I find them. Keep an eye out for future posts closer to the protest date and the eventual phase two! Thank you ALL for your support so far.
