For preserving the least toxic and most culturally relevant Tumblr heritage posts.
Image descriptions and plain text captions of written content are expected of all screenshots. Here are some image text extractors (I looked these up quick and will gladly take FOSS recommendations):
-web
-iOS
Please begin copied raw text posts (lacking a screenshot that makes it apparent it is from Tumblr) with:

At least you can request that the items be sorted!
The worst thing is sorting by price. If you sort by reviews or something things look decent. Sort by price and you see pages and pages of things that are in the wrong category and very cheap.
I love when you change the sorting arrow and the total numbers of items found changes.
Sorts by review: 5000 items that each have a single 5 star rating from years ago
Sorts by price: 5000 items for under a dollar that are only tangentially related to what you're looking for
Sorts by relevance: Amazon Basics and some Chinese company doing business as a random collection of letters in all caps
I love how they blatantly hide tons of results any time I use sort lowest to highest. 🙃
I didn't say how useful the sorting is!
