Tumblr used to let you track tags. They got rid of that and if you wanted to look at a tag in order you had to type in /tagged/buckaroo-banzai or whatever you wanted to see the latest for.

Losing tag tracking ended a lot of small fandom organization and activity. Fandom went from 'everything has a fandom, even if it's small' to small fandoms being squished. Small fandoms stopped interacting as much. Die hards like me could override it to see new content rather than the same damn top content all the time.

Welp, typing out the URL no longer works right. Now you get a search. The search has a 'recent' option but it's nothing like looking at the tag. Also, like with regular search, it's no longer the full posts it's just post previews.

This also screws large fandoms that had meta-fandom blogs. People would run blogs that only reposted the good stuff and ignored all the trolling and antis. That way people could follow the content, but through a filter. That only works with being able to look at the tags in order to pick no things to reblog.

So I can't find new Buckaroo Banzai stuff and people looking for new Buckaroo Banzai stuff can't find me.
