As you can see it wont happen now but “over the next couple of weeks”. The reason for that is simple. They want you to forget about that change and leave it on forever allowing them to hide content they deem “unsafe”.
Why turn that setting off?
The so called “Safe mode” will give tumblr full control over what you see and what you dont. They will just use that setting to unofficially ban people off the platform by cutting their followers from the content.
There is absolutely no reason for that setting to even exist! Tumblr displays only posts and reblogs from people you follow so you see only what you want to see.
What if I actually want to filter my tumblr dashboard?
Oh look here is your Safe mode button
Oh wait whats that thing under it? :O
Doesnt that make you wonder why that Safe mode button exists in the first place when you can just write tags in that menu? Tumblr just wants to gain full control over your dashboard.
If you are in tumblr just for porn then make sure to disable Safe mode once it’s out!!!
Even 2d/3d porn will most likely get censored
For everyone who wants more details
seeing as this is my nsfw blog, if you wanna see anything from here ya gotta alter the safe mode so HEADS UP
Reblogging it again, cause right now safe mode is automatically turned on..

My settings doesn’t have a “safe mode” option (as in to change it), if I click on “filtering” all it brings up is “new filters”. Has anyone else come across this problem? Is that only accessable on the desktop?
