I can appreciate the second point about how app stores are anti-porn, particularly in the broader discussion about how difficult it is to operate a site that hosts pornographic content, be a sex worker, etc.. Definitely worth discussing.

That said, am I crazy (ignorant, perhaps?) in thinking that it's irrelevant to Tumblr? Tumblr.com still works in all browsers, and surely (here's where that ignorance of mine might come into play) it's possible to have a very similar experience via browser as you would via app. I mean, you can use FB and Instagram on mobile browsers just fine for the most part, and Tumblr, too.



I guess ads in mobile apps are worth dramatically more than Web ads.
