missing-e:

Tumblr recently stopped accepting blank text posts with tags.

Many feel that these kinds of posts (no text post body, because the content worth reading is in the tags) are valid blog posts, so Missing e will add a hidden, always-on feature that will help you publish these kinds of posts!

Blank text posts without tags will still not be accepted, however.

Bless you, Missing e.

Everything that is wrong with my Tumblr Dashboard.

Oh hell no!

Tumblr, you did not just uninstall Missing E without my permission.

You have gone too far!

Is it just me, or is the time stamp on Missing E out of order?

• Tumblr employee: I have an idea! Why don't we make asks more user friendly. Y'know, allow line breaks, links, don't immediately delete the message from your inbox once you've replied...
• Karp: NO I HAVE A BETTER IDEA LET'S CREATE AN ENTIRELY SEPARATE MESSAGING SERVICE FROM OUR EXISTING ONE OMG IT WILL BE SO MUCH BETTER
• Tumblr employee: But it seems like it might be easier to-
• Karp: WHO IS THE 25 YEAR OLD MILLIONAIRE HERE? THIS WILL BE GREAT. WE'LL MAKE THIS NEW SERVICE EVERYTHING THAT ASKS COULD NEVER BE
• Tumblr employee: But they could be if we just-
• Karp: SHUT UP OK WE'RE GIVING THE PEOPLE WHAT THEY WANT
• Tumblr employee: Higher gif size? No more ask limit? Notifications when someone replies?
• Karp: UGLY FONTS. MAN, THIS IS SOME GOOD COCAINE.
• Tumblr employee: No wonder everyone uses missing e...
• Karp: DON'T SPEAK THAT NAME IN MY PRESENCE YOU'RE FIRED

Because Missing-e is connected to your browser - not your account. I only have M-e installed on Chrome. So as a test I logged on using IE, Safari and Firefox. And I still had the message telling me to ‘uninstall’ M-e. Yet my second account, which I’ve only ever used on FF, and is not connected to my email address, does not have the message at all.

According to Tumblrs privacy policy, they should not be able to access ‘users information regarding (…) extensions or third party software’. Clearly though, they have. So I think the REAL privacy problem is the fact that somehow tumblr staff are obtaining this information, which they should not be able to access, and are targeting users.

Never mind the fact that I didn’t even have Missing-E INSTALLED on three browsers, and yet the message still popped up on all of them - even after closing it again - is proof of this. 

Sort your shit out tumblr

Thanks to Maurice Cherry for bringing this to our attention.

I only have Missing E installed on two of my browsers: Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome. I have received the warning message four times: on Firefox, on Chrome… and on my iPhone and on my HP Touchpad.
Invasive much, Tumblr?
