About the Text Encoding Issue
We’ve had some reports regarding a bug currently manifesting in various ways on Tumblr, causing new posts (and some old ones) to display with special characters improperly encoded. We are aware of the issue and have tentatively identified it as rooted in a problem on Tumblr’s side; we’re keeping an eye on it and speculating on a long-term fix if it isn’t resolved soon.
Please see https://github.com/new-xkit/XKit/issues/346 for ongoing discussion regarding these issues, as well as https://github.com/new-xkit/XKit/issues/100 which may potentially be related.
Thanks!
