tumblr posts don’t have visible timestamps — you have to press a button and only then will it show you an absolute timestamp
maybe I’m alone on this one, but I feel like a timestamp can give important context to a post
and in a broader sense when scrolling the feed, not having timestamps feels like I’m stuck in a casino with no clocks
it’s a micro decision that speaks to the platform’s intentions
cohost is a place that respects your time
tumblr wants to keep you scrolling
and don’t get me started about the ads and the relative lack of breathing room between posts and the ads and how the title bars on a post are the same color as the post itself and the ads and oh did I mention the ads
