i don’t ever look at the “for you” feed here, but i was curious, so i peeked in there just now. i think it’s definitely a lot more pleasant and tolerable than twitter on home (which i vehemently refuse to use ever) but there’s that same sense of “if this is your main way of experiencing tumblr, your impression of what the community is like is going to be really different than if you only used the following feed.” the disparity is smaller, but it still felt stark to me
also i kept getting inundated by posts about liking horrible fucked up fictional men. and i’m like i’m not actually a huge enthusiast of them really so the algorithm’s impression of me is totally wrong. i suspect it’s because i posted about p*or l*ttle m*ow m*ows and then immediately posted about shirou ogami’s penis. i need to go like some communist furry art and see where that gets me
