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.

in my experience tumblr was actually a lot better about separating the smutty tags from the general ones for a fandom.
