obligatory welcome guide for redditors

A lot of the guides I've seen don't actually seem to understand how reddit works in comparison to tumblr so

your blog is basically your own small subreddit. some people curate this heavily to fit a theme, like a sub, most people don't

reblogs are culturally equivilant to upvotes but functionally equvilant to crossposting

there is an algorithm. it sucks and nobody uses it. turn it off in settings. everything is generally chronological

likes are functionally equivilant to saving a post

you've probably already seen this but change your icon and put something in your bio or people WILL assume you're a bot. personal info not required

generally, anything you would put as a comment on a thread should go in the tags or the replies of a post. only add comments in reblogs if you want it to become part of the base post

tags are mostly equivilant to flairs, used for organization and commentary

your dashboard is an aggregation of everyone you follow

there is an r/all equivilant(trending page) but it sucks and nobody uses it

our search also sucks. your best bet is using tumblr.com/tagged/[TAG] and not /search

there are no mods

by extension, reporting something doesn't put it in front of the mods, it sends it to staff, who may or may not do anything(usually they don't)

there is no karma, there are no karma limits. anyone can reblog anything, comment/reply to anything, or post in any tag

"reposting"(reblogging) old content doesn't matter. people can and will reblog the same post multiple times, including in a row

CAVEAT. reposting someones art(NOT reblogging, making a new post) is a dick move. i know this is commonplace on fandom subs but its not necessary here. everything you post should be [OC] unless you are reblogging. or posting shitty memes

we have our own sitelore, you'll pick it up

(though im not opposed to bringing some over from reddit)

our app also sucks. we do not have third party apps and any that claim to be are scams. sorry

for desktop, most people use the XKit Rewritten extension for QoL improvements and to revert shitty aesthetic updates, much like old.reddit

we have no idea where the porn rules are at either. add a mature content flag to anything you'd get fired for looking at at work, that's about it

finally, from the bottom of my heart, fuck u/spez

After 8 months of struggle, everything collapsed in a single moment.

I was so close to reaching my goal—so close to providing safety and stability for my family amidst the chaos. But suddenly, the campaign was shut down, and all donations were refunded. The shock, the heartbreak… it was unbearable. My family broke down when they heard. That campaign was our only hope, our last lifeline after everything we had was destroyed.

I wasn’t asking for help out of luxury—I was asking because we had nothing left. I borrowed from friends, promising to pay them back once I received the campaign funds. Now, even those promises feel like shattered pieces.

But a true friend, Wesam, stepped in and created a new campaign in his name—for me and my family. This is our second chance. I pray it won’t be taken away too.

This is why I’ve been silent lately. And this is why I’m reaching out now—to everyone who has ever known me: please share, donate, or simply don’t ignore this.

Help us start again.

Ngl, the exodus from Reddit to Tumblr has been a breath of fresh air.

I haven't had to argue with anyone (yet) about history that people don't know because they pretend r/HistoryMemes is the equivalent of my B.A. in History and Political Science, therefore they know more than me

I haven't had any pushback from anyone about my sexuality or gender.

I actually interact with people on this website instead of having an argument in a comment section.

I'm not saying that things are perfect here. But I don't think I would go back even if Spez weren't a piece of shit. Y'all made me welcome here. This enby lil bitch appreciates it. 💕💕💕

Sanji you have to stop. Your flower-giving too endearing. Your girldad swag too charming. Your jacket-lending too gallant. They'll kill you.

okay fine: there can be one (1) sequel, in which he befriends a guy named "sherlock holmes" but who does NOT deduce or do detection AT ALL.  and their best friend is "winnie the pooh", a normal man who simply chooses to go by that name for normal reasons

Explaining #196

On Reddit, there was a subreddit called r/196 where the only rule was that you had to post before you left. It was a successor of r/195. r/196 became a community of mostly leftist queer people with a large proportion of trans women and bisexual people, and besides a few instances, wasn't friendly to tankies, an unfortunate rarity in Reddit's leftist spaces. Reddit, in its genius, made some stupid selfish decisions resulting in moderators' ability to do their jobs getting gutted and causing Reddit on phones to be largely inaccessible to a lot of people. Thousands of subreddits decided to go private for a limited time out of protest to these changes, but a few subs would go private indefinitely until the changes were reverted, including r/196. People who still wanted the community migrated to other sites, like Tumblr.

this honey bee (Apis mellifera) doing the splits was a very lethargic individual i found scuttling in the dirt. if she was on her way out, i figured i might as well help her have a meal and decided to bring her to some flowers

to do so, i used a eucalyptus leaf to carry her around, and some woodsorrel flowers for her to actually feed on. the irony of using two highly invasive species to help a single (native) bee that is itself invasive in most of the world was not lost on me
