Way to force me to acknowledge that your own support team is worth less to me than a plugin that fixes your product. I love Tumblr. I’m baffled by how poorly they handled this shit. If you see your excited users glom onto a flawed third-party fix for your platform, so much that you’re inundated with support requests for the fix, shouldn’t your first step be to make those fixes yourself? I’m sure there are intelligent reasons to do otherwise, but Tumblr hasn’t bothered mentioning those, even when speaking directly and solely to the fix’s enthusiasts before taking a vote of confidence. Who else is keeping Missing E?

  12. thebadmonkey answered: after Karp’s “Please go away” to complaining tumblr users, I’ve given up hopes that they know how to deal with us. They totally need new PR
  13. finalellipsis answered: I pretty much agree with every single thing that everyone who has posted a screenshot of this and some words in missing e’s favor has said.
  14. boxofoctaves answered: I am. Fuck using tumblr without it. But if you opt to keep it this message still reappears every now and then, like they’re forcing it.
  15. kayfabe answered: Something on there looks familiar. Also, I’m keeping Missing E and hate how they refer to it as “browser hack”. That just sounds threatening.
