Then Tumblr mandated that porn be removed which killed it even more. It's now bought and controlled by Automattic which makes WordPress.

  I think this was it more than anything else. It wasn't even just a mandate or just porn, they ran some sort of "is this image mostly skin color?" check against posted images and automatically locked down accounts with matches. Got a huge number of false positives and didn't even notify the owners.

    I think they were one of the ones to adopt the "female presenting nipple" language as well. I would like to know which lawyer originally came up with that language because I've seen it in many places at this point.

      Probably from the users. Tumblr was the origin point of a lot of the now-common "woke language".

        I doubt that; the users widely mocked the phrase at the time.
