MODERATORS
The main problem with porn is moderating it. Especially having to watch something to determine whether or not it's csam. It's easier to just ban porn. It's a big hassle whenever your site isn't supposed to be a porn site.
and therein lies the crux of the issue. lots of folks who were around before the porn ban would argue that the smut was integral to tumblr’s identity; that the tumblr we have today is just a shadow of what it once was.
Wasn't it a cesspit akin to twitter? I heard that tumblr is actually decent nowadays.
in my experience tumblr was actually a lot better about separating the smutty tags from the general ones for a fandom.
There were still a lot of reprobates there who ended up moving to twitter
