@ZW748VSJSiwWMNBxyz@neckbeard.xyz @mewmew @KatGoesWoof @lottev I look at that as being similar to Myspace. Tumblr gave a user a tonne of freedom in customizing their user page, but tonnes of people just used similar premade templates that they thought looked nice, and most of the people who didn't use those good looking templates ended up creating horrific abominations that were impossible to navigate, changed your cursor to some random image the user thought was cute, covered the screen in sparkles, rainbows, and dancing ponies, and screeched awful music at you until you managed to figure out where exactly they decided to hide the pause or mute button - if they bothered to even include one. While it was a nice feature a lot of the site's userbase enjoyed, it was also something that, from what I saw, was seen as a nice cosmetic extra - not the main draw of the site, and something that was arguably more annoying than actually useful, to many people.
