For preserving the least toxic and most culturally relevant Tumblr heritage posts.

Image descriptions and plain text captions of written content are expected of all screenshots. Here are some image text extractors (I looked these up quick and will gladly take FOSS recommendations):

-web

-iOS

-android

Please begin copied raw text posts (lacking a screenshot that makes it apparent it is from Tumblr) with:

This is why I like strongly opinionated frameworks! People get hung up on whether they agree with the opinions themselves, which is valid, but I think kinda misses the point. The great strength of opinionated frameworks is the speed with which you can get "everyone to think about a shared goal in a similar way", to use your phrasing. They do have their problems of course and if you ask me in 5 years, maybe I feel the opposite way about it.

I also tend to like opinionated frameworks. On top of easing the onboarding process, they can also afford to have more detailed docs/support/stability because they don’t have to account for there being a million ways to do even a basic thing.

I’m sympathetic, in theory, to the downsides noted by Rich Hickey in Simple Made Easy and Uncle Bob in Architecture The Lost Years… but IRL, I can’t say I’ve ever seen a project successfully lean into those principles at any significant scale. So maybe more of an academic appreciation there.
