Is this really that much different than tumblr telling you people how many people are following you? In both cases, who gives a flying fuck, but I don’t see how this is any worse.

theslyestfox:

conversely, i agree with Ned, in that at the very least people should be give the option to turn off Tumblarity. To opt out completely or even to just not see it on their dashboards.

nedhepburn:

if this Tumblarity thing keeps happening i’m moving to typepad or something. this is fucking retarded. not to “bite the hand that feeds”, but seriously? what is this - high school? who gives a fuck how popular you are? why do i need to fucking know? i dont give a fuck. i should be given the option not to give a fuck and just keep fucking writing or blogging.

you should be doing this for you, not so you can get more followers or some fucking validational bullshit or whatever. write for yourself. what the fuck, Tumblr? you just jumped the fucking shark.
