We now have a Discord server, come talk to us!
- April 21st: Please don't use the 48h FFD reason if you wish to flag your own upload as an inferior version to something else. The custom reason is only there for the rare occasion that an upload needs to be deleted permanently, not just replaced with a better/different version.
- February 26th: Ratte has removed a ton of old records recently. If you see you've been getting a record "again" please check first that it doesn't say the record has been removed or updated. If the subject uses either of those words your record was either deleted or has been downgraded from a negative to a neutral.
- Missed the update about decaying records? Check here for details.

Yep.. Those would've been extremely useful now.
Old direct links still work if you change the subdomain, but same cannot be said about other Tumblr sources: tons of deleted or moved accounts, etc. The images are probably still out there somewhere, but in many cases we have no way to find them.
Reverse image searches don't work, and Tumblr is excluded from Internet Archive, etc. Nothing that can be done now, as far as I can see.
