No. Every post with a tumblr.com link gets automatically banned.
A week ago I posted something to a subreddit I've founded and it got banned. This spam filter isn't even allowing moderators to post these links. But I was allowed to unban it.
So, I wrote to the moderators of /r/technology a few minutes ago and instead of unbanning it they said that tumblr.com is banned reddit wide. No, he hasn't unbanned the link. :-(
- colechristensen 14y agoDespite the occasional high value link, the reddit ban on tumblr makes reddit better.
- colmvp 14y agoWhereas quickmeme.com is edifying?
- colechristensen 14y agoFortunately or not, there are whole sections of Reddit devoted more or less to quickmeme.com. Some subreddits auto-ban quickmeme which I highly encourage, but a sitewide ban is unreasonable because of how engrained it is in the culture. Image captioning is, in our opinion, a bit worthless, but this is what we actually find objectionable not just one site of many which provides this. Blogging itself is not what is objectionable just the general quality of the content from Tumblr, so comparing quickmeme to tumblr is unfair.
- stesch 14y agoWhere is the option to auto-ban certain domains? I've never seen it.
- skeletonjelly 14y agoDoesn't exist. Spam filter learns.

- anoncow 14y agoI suspect the decision was to maintain the quality of posts.
