I hate Tumblr. Most Tumblr blogs are an eyesore (in the same way the old MySpace profiles were). I avoid the site whenever possible.

  Accessing Tumblr sites directly is for "legacy support". A very high percentage of Tumblr impressions are through the Dashboard where all style/themes are removed from the content.

    So I've heard. It's perverse. All the styling and theming is atrocious, but good news: on this blogging platform, nobody actually looks at the public facing pages! Everything looks great (if you think completely unstyled text and images and no externally-hosted content == "great") so long as you log in to a view only you can see.

      This doesn't make any sense! if you want to view tumblr without the themes use the /archive feature

    Odd, that sounds like an RSS reader but one integrated directly into the way tumblr does syndication. Why would the tumblr audience be heavy RSS (alike) users but also be one of the reasons that Google is abandoning RSS readers?
