lmao is this satire? It's so hard to tell with Tumblr sometimes.
"The lack of feedback stems from the outdated decision to only show content from followed blogs on the main dashboard feed (“Following”)"

@megmac I notice section 3 is basically stuff Cohost has figured out and does fairly well, so I'm excited to see that on a more mature platform. one cool thing tumblr has allowed for a while is following tags, but it's sometimes hard to know what tags to follow since there's no metric of how often a particular tag gets used. more guidance on tagging would be nice. Right now there's an experiment to optionally add posts from tags you're following to your regular dash which seems less useful
@megmac I dunno there's a lot of potential for things that could improve tumblr and that post does touch on some of it. but yeah the less control they give the user on what they see the less I'm into the idea
