Hello all new people who are flooding here after being displaced by the TikTok ban. There are cookies on the table and I have a kettle of tea on the stove. As you get settled I wanna go over a quick psa for you guys.

Tumblr and ao3 have very similar mindsets. If you don’t like, move on. The block button is an option I highly recommend utilizing as it’s complimentary with the account.

You are going to see upsetting things. But we’re at a time where censorship is rampant and abused for political agendas. You saw what happened with TikTok. That was entirely politically motivated. There is a reason our accounts are still up despite us not being able to use the app. It’s about stopping free communication.

That’s why it is so important that we prioritize ignoring what you don’t like instead of actively trying to get people to stop.

Yes there are caveats. Threatening someone’s actual safety for one thing, NOT OKAY. Things like that ain’t cool. But something like having a negative opinion about an actor? They’re not gonna see that. It is not the worst offense to say you prefer one actor over another. I know this was a very hot topic on TikTok. But it’s different on tumblr.

Having opinions is allowed here.

Anyways support your favorite artists, laugh at funny posts, reblog as you wish, tell us what’s on your mind, and make yourself comfortable. We’re happy to have you! Just please, leave any beef you had on TikTok, on TikTok.

Tbh the most important thing to know moving to tumblr is that no matter how hard you try, you can never be the most annoying person on here so long as you’re actually honest in engaging and treat others like people

And even if you’re not it’s a pretty stiff competition anyway so you may as well just have a good time

A regularly-scheduled reminder, shared with the utmost warmth and love, that the best way to support writers and artists on Tumblr is the reblog function. 🥰

Add comments in the reblog or not. Add tags or not. Any reblog, empty or full, is appreciated and the most appreciated way to encourage us as we work to create lovely stuff for you to enjoy! ❤️

Mas q porra é o tumblr~

Uma tentativa de guia de uma br q usa saporra desde os 14.

Como pode imaginar aqui é bem espaço de gringo mas q se dane isso meu bem se tu persistir vai da certo confia.

Seguinte

Primeiro passo: mude seu ícone.

Tá vendo essas porrinha? Provavelmente são seu ícone se vc n mudou eles ainda

Aqui temos uma mania de bloquear seguidores com esses ícones pq geralmente são bots q querer fingir ser humanos pra manter link pra site pirata/porno/q rouba seu cartão de crédito, eles fazem isso tendo seguidores q engana os bots do tumbrl temporariamente. Ent é melhor mudar se pode fazer isso(no cell) assim :

[Mais abaixo]

2. Ache povo pra segui: pra esse site funcionar como uma benção tu precisa começar a achar povo pra seguir

Dica: Q VC GOSTE DO Q ELES FAZEM, pelo amor do krl não vai se meter num ninho de cobra e achar q não tem escapatória pq aqui a regra é "se não gosta não siga, não leia, não interaja, continue rodando pra baixo e vá ser feliz", se alguém te bloqueou? Nada pessoal, genuinamente isso é comum por aqui eu já bloqueio povo pq tem uns q fala q gosta de X do que Y e eu não concordava, a pessoa n sabe e eu continuo minha visa sem dor de cabeça(e ja trombei em blog q me bloqueou sim, morro de curiosidade? Tb mas bola pra frente q qm remoe o passado é velho mal amado)

Mas como q faz isso? Vc vai achar um icone de lupa bem embaixo da sua tela no celular, ela vai te levar pra cá:

Ali vc vai escrever geralmente uma ou duas palavras chaves, q chaves seriam essas? Pois bem, fandoms, estéticas, nomes e sobrenomes. Eu ando mais pelo lado de desenho e animação portando o exemplo q eu vou dar é vc escrever "Undertale", ou pro povo de rpg "ordem paranormal" sem os aspas(""), aí vc vai achar o povo q posta sobre isso e vc escolhe qm segue.

3. O q krls são tags? Resumo da opera: são o q permite vc achar os posts na lupinha de pesquisa, são esses # cinza no fim dos posts

Aqui no tumbrl as 20 primeiras tags são importantes pra vc colocar seu post no mundo, sem elas n tem como facilmente acha-lo, mas tb temos uma cultura de falar nelas, o q, qualquer bosta, seja meta comentário do próprio posto ou responder reblogs, pq tags n carregam de um post para o outro sem a outra pessoa propositadamente colocá-las novamente .

Ent quer dizer q eu tenho q colocar um bando de tag pro povo me achar? NÃO, se vc fizer um post de undertale e mete nele as tags de dragon ball e naruto só pq vc quer mais atenção vc vai tomar bloqueio E ser denunciado por spam de tags, aqui é pra relaxar e crescer DEVAGAR, o povo vai gosta de vc só tenha paciência, spam de tags é infuriante e inútil pq vai mais afastar pessoas de vc to q conquista-las. Aqui não é instagram.

4. Ok troquei meu ícone e segui povo, e agora? Agora vc vai se aventurar nas configurações, mas pq? Isso é pq o tumblr permite vc customização sua experiência de diversas formas, dentre sua primeira aba ser somente feita de posts de pessoas q vc segue, de ocultar seus gostei e lista de qm vc segue, para retirar posts recomendados pelo algoritmo etc.

Foque em "acount settings" e "visibility"

No primeiro se atente nessas opções

E no segundo essas:

Eu confio q vc saiba ler/ouvir e usar o tradutor pra configurar de acordo com a sua preferência as opções q ele te dá.

Caso vc n ligue pra nada disso e tá gostando de como ele tá nessa forma base ent pula essa etapa mas pelo menos vc já sabe se quiser mudar tem como ;)

5. Blz, fiz tudo isso, agora posso ir embora? Calma, tamo terminando só falta as últimas dicas.

Primeira dica: a subcultura mais forte no tumblr são fandoms, se vc quer crescer te aconselho a fazer seja fanfic ou fanarte, coisas originais são difíceis de vingar aqui sem muitos, MUITOS, seguidores. Ou interagir em tudo, nós artistas somo tudo esfomeado por comentários e elogios, tá escaço aqui disso e nois br somo um povo bem amigável e meu bem é só falar um "q lindo" nas minhas criações q eu já tô chorando de felicidade

Segunda: Reblog. Sabe o retweet e o quote do Twitter? É. Aqui é reblog, e ambos dão visibilidade pro blog q criou o post original, vc pode comentar tanto no reblog quanto em suas tags q é tudo bem vindo aqui.

Terceira: vc é dono de si, aqui qm cria sua experiência é vc, siga blogs q só reblogam, siga blogs q postem arte, fanart, fic, ocs, se aventure para ter uma experiência vasta. Devagar vc vai pegando a manhã do site, e qm sabe se com um pouco de persistência uma comunidade q fale br mais do q inglês, pq queira ou n a maioria aqui e gringo mas vc pode mudar isso ;)

Crie 30 subblogs se quiser cada um com.um tema diferente, só viva de um blog, poste arte, aconselho a não postar foto sua pq aqui anonimidade é o q mais atrae pessoas e o q me atraiu pra cá em primeiro lugar, se divirta, use tradutor, use extensões, fuçe em TUDO. E no fim do dia o q era mais amedrontador vai parecer instinto

Bem vindo ao tumblr, eu amo seus cadarços e euprometo q não é tão assustador assim,vc só tem q aprender a sujar as mãos um pouco ;)

New User Advice: Use Your Words

Welcome to new tumblr users! This post is going to explain why we don’t censor things on tumblr, why that’s important for safety, and why that will help your posts get MORE visibility, not less!

Now I know on some apps, particularly TikTok and Twitter, there’s the worry that saying certain words will cause the algorithm to ignore or suppress your post. Tumblr does not have an algorithm like that. There’s technically a “For You” page, but most people don’t use it and I don’t suggest it because that’s not really how tumblr works best.

Tumblr works best when you actively choose to FOLLOW people. This site is about connecting with individuals by CHOICE, not just passively consuming content that has been fed to you by math. Browsing tags and using the search function is your best bet to get started finding cool people. You follow them, and their posts will show up on your dashboard. Soon you’ll have collected a bunch of cool people and you’ll see great posts all day long!

If you WANT people to find your content, tag it with relevant tags. You WILL be reported as a spammer if you use tags that do not relate to your post. Do not tag your post about snakes with whatever tag is trending that day. Just tag it #snakes and #snakeblr. Just like TikTok has "booktok", combining the interest with the word "Tok", we do that on Tumblr too! We have #bookblr and #studyblr and all other kinds of tags to explore! You can also explore by using ship tags, like #spirk or #garashir or #stormpilot or any other ship name.

You can also choose what post content and which tags you want to block, and it works really well in this site! This function is built in, you just have to go to settings > "general settings" > "filtering in the app", and settings > "content you see".

But - all of the above ONLY works well if you USE REAL WORDS. There are no "le$bians" or "ledollarbeans" on Tumblr, they are lesbians. You can say lesbian here. You can say "kill". You will be mocked if you say "unalive". You NEED to tag warnings with the actual word, not a misspelled censored version, because otherwise you are actively hurting the people you are trying to help. If I need to avoid images of snakes, you're not helping me if you tag your post #sn4akes. I'm not scared of the word "snakes", I'm scared of images OF snakes, and you've now made it so my filter for "#snakes" isn't going to work.

ALSO - you can add read mores here. PLEASE do this.

Welcome TikTok Refugees

Just a few real quick tips for surviving on Tumblr

1. REBLOG

Reblog everything you like. Likes don’t do anything around here. There’s no algorithm, the only way for a post to gain traction is for people to Reblog it so their followers can see, and their followers and theirs, etc.

2. Nobody gives a shit if they’re canon, they’re going to be shipped

Enough said.

I can’t tell if the spike in follows is from bots or twitter and reddit refugees. If so, welcome aboard Titanic’s 34th Lifeboat. Currently still floating but it’s getting cold out here

Literally just joined Tumblr. To make a acc, the site forces you to follow like 4 ppl for your fyp. You were on that list. Hello!

Welcome to Tumblr and thanks for adding me! I have only been here since September last year, so I'm super new too! It's become my favorite social media with the kindest people 💜

How to Tumbl

This is something I didn't know for years after I joined Tumblr, and I wouldn't have ever figured it out if someone hadn't told me directly.

See the meatball menu in the corner, there? If you click on that you can choose Ask or Archive. If you choose Archive you get

a new page with all the posts for that blog (yours or anyone else's) as individual thumbnails, arranged by date. You can scroll down it if you're looking for something recent, or jump directly to an earlier month. You can also look by post type or by tag, but you don't get many options for tags. For example, I use "hero and nutmeg' as a tag pretty often, but not often enough for it to be one of the options here.

So, if you want to look back at your own blog without scrolling for days, or find something you remember someone else posting a while back - this helps.
