something is seriously wrong with these icons like

the designs make 0 sense they are not indicative of their function (with the exception of text, link and video) 

the icons for link and chat are virtually identical 

the icon for text is noticeably smaller looking and feels off-centered compared to the other icons

did tumblr do this as a joke? did someone make a mistake? i’m genuinely curious because these icons are incredibly ineffective and poorly designed

They changed them back in less than 10 minutes but please let this post live forever as a testament to the staff’s poor decision.

Tbh this looks like a mistake and not an update I doubt they intentionally changed to that (if they did idk this could just be made up).

They literally changed this because peeps were complaining about the current design and they said, ‘fine look at what it was when the site literally was founded, is that better?’
