Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
Sister Communities:

I might be wrong but I think might be misremembering something, Myspace lost all it's user data but not till like 2016 which was years after news corp sold the site.
They didn't delete the users, but they deleted everyone's blog posts, and i think wall posts and settings too. It has been decades now, but I remember a bunch of content disappearing right after they bought it, which drove more people to check out Facebook. Then later I think they wiped the pictures from people who hadn't been active in awhile. I know at some point all of my pictures disappeared, and that's when I finally completely gave up on the site.
