Okay, I want to follow this content. What do I do?

Hello everyone.

So given the recent raise of "tag me!" replies in fics going around Tumblr, and given the recent awareness post about how disheartening, annoying and sometimes disappointing it can be to only get that kind of engagement — I've thought it was a good idea to explain what you can do if you want to follow content.

Basing on what Dis already added to the original post, this is a more detailed list of what options you have when enjoying the content you see.

I liked this prompt, I wish to see all the additions to it. How can I keep up?

You can subscribe to the post!

Desktop: Left click on the three dots and click on "Subscribe to conversation"

Mobile: Go to the Notes and click the top right bell icon

I liked this fic the author posted and I wish to know when they post the next part. How can I be notified?

You have several options here:

Find their Ao3! A lot of authors crosspost on tumblr and ao3, or prefer to post a more polished version on ao3 later on. Whichever the case, you can go to AO3 and subscribe to the fic/author there if you'd like

2. Follow the author! Really. We don't bite. You can just follow the blog, as easy as that. Want to be notified any time they post anything? You can subscribe to the blog and get a notification when they post anything

EDIT: THERE ARE "SECRET" DASHBOARDS, and one of them is a dashboard of all the blogs you have turned on notifications.

Blog Subscriptions Dashboard or go to Settings and turn on the tab in Settings -> Lab

3. You can still request to be tagged if they continue! But don't let that be the ONLY engagement you do. Like the post. Reblog it. Leave a comment saying what you like, a keysmash, a lovely "hey i really like where this is going!" and then you can say "if you do continue, can you tag me?". 9/10 we would love to write down your name. I can't speak for everybody so it depends on the person, but we want to not feel like we are screaming to the void. Engage. Respond.

KEEP IN MIND: Tumblr is a reblog-based social media. There is no algorithm. We get readers ONLY via reblogs. Likes? Likes are nice but do nothing. You liked the art? REBLOG THE ART.

Another post about reblogging, why it doesn't feel annoying for authors and how you can reblog and add tags faster on desktop and mobile

UPDATE: Tumblr feature for desktop!!!!! If you hover with the mouse over a post and hit "shift+R", post is automatically reblogged!

I liked this oneshot and I wish to know if they will continue it.

If it's a oneshot, RESPECT IT. The author may not have plans for the story, or doesn't have the energy to elaborate. Or if they do, it will be waaaaay later.

Whatever the case, don't demand a continuation.

Really, don't. Is very rude.

Still want to shoot your shot and see if they continue it?

Reblog it! Say why you liked it! In the tags, in the same reblog, wherever! If the author gets inspired they will continue, but remember we do this for free in our free time, you don't know what their life looks like. Respect that.

PLEASE NOTE: You can still find them in AO3 and subscribe to the fic/author there.

I like the AU/Idea/Project, how can I follow any new content for it?

You can follow a tag!

A lot of authors have a specific tag for their AU/idea/project (eg. "plant princess au") that you can follow if you want to keep up. Just check the tags in the post and hit follow.

Desktop:

Mobile:

And that's it! If I have more ideas or examples I will add to the post.

Remember, the point is not to make fun or to make people apologize for the "tag me" replies. This is informative for newcomers and older users alike.

If you have any questions or worries don't hesitate to ask! 🙂👍💖

[ PINNED POST — UPDATED 03-24-2024 ]

hello! you can call me teegan or reefs. i'm 23 years old, and i use she/her pronouns. i decided to remake my socials for ocd reasons, and this is my new main tumblr. my page is multifandom and reblog heavy. feel free to check under the read more for additional information about me, my blog, and my interests. 🌵

[ GENERAL INFORMATION ]

this account is relatively sfw. i'm an adult, but i will not interact with or create any explicit nsfw posts. i may follow and interact with nsfw accounts, but i refrain from engaging with any explicit content that they post. with that being said, suggestive themes may be present in what i post and reblog, but i do my best to tag everything accordingly. keep this in mind when following me. if you need anything tagged, just let me know.

i block freely, and you should too. if at any point you're not vibing with what i post anymore, feel free to unfollow or even block me. i encourage this behavior, and no grudges will be held. everybody should be able to curate their internet experience to their liking.

[ BEFORE YOU FOLLOW ]

i don't have a dni because i think they're goofy and i block freely enough that i'll just get rid of you if i don't like you, but there are a couple of things that i want to make clear:

i am against nfts, cryptocurrency, and ai (art, voice, music covers, chatbots, etc.)

i think incestuous and pedophilic fictional content is gross, and prefer to avoid people who engage with and/or create it.

[ INTERESTS ]

video games are my main interest and the usual focus of what i post, but i also enjoy writing, roleplaying, drawing, and making video edits. listed below are some of my favorite medias right now and what you can probably expect to see from me. i try to keep this list up to date and relevant.

league of legends, apex legends, borderlands, overwatch, arcane, fallout, redfall, and baldur's gate 3.

there are more of course, but these are the big ones right now. feel free to talk to me about my interests and fandoms. i'm very cool and nice i promise. 👍
