#stuff for you

Tumblr will automatically switch to the “stuff for you” without me realizing and every time I’m thinking “wow everyone I follow sucks big time”

I know a lot of people hate the For You tab but mine is serving up some pretty great Pirates content at the moment so I’m happy

On the other hand I wish there was a button for “I’ve read this already; you can stop showing it to me now”

Not liking this thing where tumblr is slowly trying to push us to the algorithm rather than the chronological timeline of posts from people we follow.

It starts with adding the “Stuff For You” tab, which is not actually stuff for me, because stuff for me would be stuff from the people I chose to follow, also known as the “Following” tab. But as long as I don’t switch to that tab, no big deal, right?

Now when I open the app, I’m on the “Stuff For You” tab by default. Now I have to make a conscious decision to switch back to the “Following” tab, even though that tab is itself the result of many conscious decisions I made to follow people.

Cut it out, @staff. The chronological timeline of posts from people I follow is what makes tumblr better than other social media sites. Leave it alone.
