Then they pop one of those and lost me for ever!

      I think there are many others one could point to more accurately, including Yahoo who purchased and then resold tumblr.

      While Tumblr has made a lot of changes, some of which were walked back, they are still a well used and beloved site today. There are many now-dead or barely alive behemoth Internet companies that are better examples of “poster child for running a terrible Internet business” imo.
