#2Just hotkey detection gone wrong. Not that big of a surprise because implementing hotkeys on a website is a complete minefield. I don't think you can conclude that Tumblr is badly written from this. Badly tested maybe.

#3I cannot help but wonder, why does this person still spends their time on tumblr if they dislike it so much?
Just move somewhere else.

Probably because of other people.

#7> tumblr is fractally broken. it's not wrong in any specific way, it's wrong at every possible scale.

Because it's not all bad? Because the problems they experience are relatively minor and fixable, and that by complaining about this bug it might get fixed?

#9> So you are typing "Don't" and the ResetCursorPosition() function gets called and you look at the textbox and now it says "on'tD"
I had this bug trying to implement a text editor using Draft.js but not sure it was for the same reason.
I guess tumblr devs tried to implement a text editor and at the same time have some vim like shortcuts(jkl).
This makes you appreciate how less can be more.

Tumblr is still the best place to be for many people - even despite all those flaws. For many, there is no better "somewhere else" people can "just" move to.
