Sponsored Horror Movie GIFs
This is annoying. Lately I’ve been getting sponsored posts with these startling animated GIFs advertising horror movies. Horror movies don’t really bother me that much in themselves, but I don’t care for them, and I definitely don’t like scrolling through my dashboard looking for cute posts about Pokémon and getting startled by an auto playing GIF of a crazed sweaty guy shaking his head back and forth and screaming! Good thing GIFs can’t play sound at least. Really, a still image would work just fine for the advertisement of your gory Halloween flick. You don’t have to give people Heart Attacks!
Is there any way to disable these kind of things?
If you are browsing on a computer (as opposed to a tablet or phone) you can look into installing Tumblr Savior or XKit with the Blacklist plugin.
But yeah. It’s awful. It’s awful because in this respect the business decisions made by staff (and I assume in particular by david) really, really suck.
