Additionally: you don't have to read what people say about you. You can turn off notifications for reblogs (yes, reblogs are the only way to comment on something) and in fact, commenting on something that you disagree with will make it still louder. A reblog causes the number of Notes to increase even if you disagree with the content. So there's no good way to express your disapproval of something.
Tumblr is mathematically biased to prevent feedback from the outside. People who use it rarely change their opinions because of this.
- xtrumanx 12y agoReddit and HN allows a great way to express your disapproval. I don't believe people change their opinions because of it. They either decide to shut up about their opinions which they know will attract downvotes or they move on. I employ each tactic on HN and reddit respectively.
- striking 12y agoI know that I personally have changed my opinion because of downvotes and discussion on HN. I can't say that about every single person who uses HN, but it's far better than what I've seen on Tumblr.
