New Blogs - Blog Posts

Just a warning, I’m about to go on a bit of a rant…

I’m honestly so sick of getting excited over new followers/likes only for it to be bots. It’s even worse when the profile has a stolen picture from some poor, random girl’s Instagram and the account posts graphic stuff. Like, the person whose picture you used didn’t consent to have their image attached to adult content, and I didn’t consent to being exposed to it, either. I know some people won’t get it, but suddenly being shown stuff like that can be triggering for some trauma victims. All social media platforms have problems with spam and bots, but in my experience Tumblr is exponentially worse. It’s especially disheartening as a tiny blog. Half of my likes at this point are probably from spam. I wish there was at least a way to block the accounts without having to view their pages.
