    Tumblr was never easy to use; that was my main issue with the site well before its resurrection by Automattic. (Also, the whiners. Oh god, that place was chock full of bleeding heart weenies who tried to out-white knight each other at every turn.)

      But at the same time, it being weird, clunky, and horrendously coded was also part of its charm.

      Things like the porn ban filter malfunctioning and tagging the post announcing it as NSFW, along with a variety of sand dunes was funny because of that.

      It was better for it, including still being able to have custom CSS. When the internet started to replace custom pages with a homogenized feed, it was when things started to go wrong.
