    banning porn caused a lot of users to move to twitter, leaving behind only people who were maybe a bit older and a bit more set on their social media, which in turn meant that the population left on Tumblr is now slightly older, more mature and probably themselves past the point of getting dragged down in ship wars and such

      I'll remind you that plenty of the people running horrid communities were well into their adulthood, over 30 and such. My hypothesis is that as the site lost popularity, those toxic people feeding off these "wars" moved on, and with the people most stoking the fires gone, the site got to be more chill.
