* [[Hipster]]: A lot of the people on tumblr are considered hipsters.
* [[Hypocrite]]: No few responses to D'Onofrio's manifesto pointed out that [[Nazi|Neo-Nazi]] and hate content was apparently considered perfectly acceptable under the new rules, but "safe spaces" where gay teens could receive emotional support were offensive.
* [[Killing the Goose That Lays the Golden Eggs]]: Verizon's castration of tumblr in 2018: a ham-handed and tone-deaf effort to "sanitize" what was then the Net's largest microblogging site in order to [[Think of the Advertisers!|attract more advertising revenue]] and monetize its communities for fandoms and social movements. It resulted instead in [[Media:Tumblr-pornban-impact.jpg|users abandoning the site by the millions]] and its valuation plunging from over a billion US dollars to just a few million in a matter of weeks. Verizon was ultimately forced to sell the site only eight months later at a fraction of a penny on the dollar compared to what it paid to acquire it.
* [[Lemon]]/[[Lime]]: The entire "citrus scale" [http://xchrononautx.tumblr.com/post/182449594591/nsfw-will-be-tagged-as-lemon-sorta-nsfw-is-lime has been revived] [https://web.archive.org/web/20200328165743/https://deathdaydungeon.tumblr.com/post/182402404968/just-things-i-like-mostly-deathdaydungeon-the as of January 2019] as a way of getting around tumblr's refusal to permit searches on "NSFW", "R18" and other tags formerly used to identify adult content.
* [[Link Blog]]: What tumblogs often become in practice.
