Tumblr, Bought by Pornhub. Returning to NSFW Content
Though there have been rumors about the possible changes in the social media industry, Tumblr might be facing new challenges in the nearest future. It is hard to predict the outcome of the story, but the users definitely need to prepare to meet the regulations that have been posted on the media. There are also options, available to the visitors of the platforms, who are looking for all kinds of content available.
The representatives of Pornhub, which is famous for supporting erotic communities, said that they are looking forward to acquiring Tumblr and making it NSFW again. The users that visited Tumblr searching for adult content were found seriously disappointed when all NSFW materials were extracted from the site. The vice president of Pornhub mocked the decision of the platform runners, saying that the users lost an opportunity to express themselves sexually and sensually.
The backlash of the community could be justified since the regular posts were accidentally deleted as well. There was a discussion on one of the media channels, concerning the future of Tumblr, where millions of bloggers suffered due to the accidental editing of the posts that have already been issued. The release of the new directive means changes for the entire industry, and if the community does not play by the rules, there might be other precedents waiting for the users. It is hard to assess the impact, created by the announcement, but it definitely means that the users need to be ready to face the rules of using the platform along with other reformative acts, released recently.
The platform that had become notorious for its adult content can no longer boast banned images, and some of the visitors are not really happy about the current state of affairs. With the possible synergy taking place in the future, the users could once again find the platform restored to the former status. However, Tumblr representatives decided to refrain from comments on the recent announcement, made by the video giant. They prefer to secure their position as a platform with no NSFW content available at the moment.
The Synergy and the Possible Benefits
For the developing platform with an established reputation, the acquiring process may actually be useful. Following the backlash that was supported by the decrease in the traffic, the users issued their own demands, declaring that the adult imagery needs to get back with all the previous regulations being dismissed. In addition, the platform suffered low traffic that dropped by 16 percent the moment a brand new regulation was put into practice.
With the possible changes making for an excellent fit, the users cannot wait to explore the updated posts. Meanwhile, Pornhub decided to make the first step and openly ridiculed the attempts of the social platform to back away from the adult content. They invited everyone to their regulation-free zone, claiming that they are offering the freedom that comes with sexual expression. The representatives of the company added that they are highly interested in the synergy with Tumblr. They hope that one day, the platform will become what it used to be and function normally.
