we all gripe about this site’s past and present and future because yes it sucks so why has it been literal years since I’ve seen any posts recalling ye olde Post Limit

I’m sorry the What

You could only make and reblog like 150 posts within a certain period of time to control traffic or whatever, and when you hit that limit you would be unable to post or reblog anything for sometimes several hours.

There was an ENTIRE external site called postlimit dot com that everyone had bookmarked because you’d search up your url there and it gave you a countdown to when the effects of your banishment would be lifted.

A lot of people would hit Post Limit at similar times so we used to go to like Skype or whatever and chat (because tumblr did not have an on-site messaging system beyond fan mail at the time) while we all waited for tumblr to free us from the little shame lockers they shoved us in.

I still keep hitting post limit because I keep dumping my queue out in order to include them in my backups

Post limits still a thing, postlimit dot com still works

Can confirm that post limit is still a thing. It’s currently at 250 posts a day, and I’ve hit it for the last couple days… probably because of reblogging so many posts about how messed up the new tumblr changes are, ironically enough.

Holy Shit It’s Still Here

D-did people actually forget that there was still a post limit???
