#send me a tumblr user's url and i'll tell you what i think of them

[timeflow]

good evening reddit users, welcome to the website. not seen one of these that tells you how to make this website bearable so here goes

starting off with dashboard settings you want to turn off endless scrolling (it slows down the website after a while of scrolling), turn off shorten long posts because one of the main things about this website is the total lack of a character limit (as an alternative to this setting, you can press j to skip to the next post on the dashboard if the current one is kind of long). turning on timestamps is convenient because it allows you to check when a post was made (don't get me wrong: this website absolutely LOVES reblogging old posts, but there are times when it's worth checking if a post has very old news in it)

turn off best stuff first right away. one of the main reasons cited for joining tumblr is because "there is no algorithm". this is not entirely true, we have one but we routinely turn off anything algorithmic that staff adds. turning off best stuff first means your dashboard will be reverse chronological no matter what, and turning off based on your likes and stuff in your orbit will get rid of the rest of the algorithmically-recommended content that appears on your dashboard

following tags is nice because you will occasionally see posts with tags you follow sprinkled into your dashboard. this is considered good because it's almost always recent, I personally recommend turning on include followed tag posts and just following a bunch of random tags that you think could be interesting (characters, media, topics, whatever)

this one's a more personal thing but I would absolutely turn off any community labels because tumblr staff has recently been just putting a bunch of random posts under this despite being entirely sfw. if you ACTUALLY want to filter content, then go to filtered tags:

unlike the community labels which are put arbitrarily by staff, tags are put on by the actual users and so you can MUCH more reliably filter out content you don't want to see by putting filtered tags. this also works for any kind of content unlike the community labels, meaning you can just filter out stuff that you don't want to see (a particular character, a particular piece of media, a certain topic, anything you want really)

turn on custom theme immediately. the standard view of tumblr.com/url will give people who are not logged in a forced login wall, meanwhile url.tumblr.com will not. by doing this you also get access to your post archive at url.tumblr.com/archive, which lets you look through your posts more easily (the search function is awful). the main benefit of this, however, is that you get to have a custom look to your blog: going to edit theme brings up a menu that allows you to customize your css, add pages to your tumblr blog, etc. all very useful stuff

it's also worth taking the time to consider whether or not you leave your liked posts and list of blogs you follow public (most people have likes turned off, following is also commonly turned off but I personally don't care about others seeing who I follow)

turn off the let people blaze your posts. blaze basically allows you to pay money to show a post to a random group of people by paying money, suffices to say that allowing others to blaze your posts without your consent will inevitably lead to one of your personal posts getting blazed by some prick and now hundreds of people have seen it

asks are one of the main ways of interacting with blogs so absolutely turn them on. whether you allow anons is your choice, anonymity allows people to say nice things without feeling embarrassed about how everyone knows who said that, but it also allows people to send hateful stuff with no consequence.

submissions are like whatever. I personally leave them on but in my 5 years of having this blog I've been submitted to twice.

to close off this post I'll leave my personal thoughts on reblog etiquette:

reblogging is great. reblog the fuck out of anything. does the post amuse you slightly? reblog it. go wild

that being said please don't put anything in your reblogs unless it's like a really important comment. your comment will be immortalized forever if someone reblogs the post from you and on popular posts I have to constantly go back a couple years to get rid of an annoying comment like "LOL THIS IS SO FUNNY" because that person didn't realize that their addition was wholly unnecessary

if you DO want to add something to say your thoughts on the post in a quiet voice that doesn't get permanently added onto the original, consider talking in the tags of your reblog. this is considered nicer since when the post is reblogged from you your tags are not going to stick around. there is also this process known as "peer review" in which if your tags are sufficiently funny one of your followers (or sometimes a random person browsing the notes of the post) will screenshot/copy and paste your tags into a reblog, which is a much more natural way of having your comment added into the post

tags are also nice to use or organizational purposes. clicking on a post with a certain tag on your blog will show you every post with that tag on your blog allowing you to find posts later, alternatively you can go to url.tumblr.com/archive/tagged/[insert tag here] to a similar effect.

that's all I have to say on this subject. have fun on our glorious website

edit: oh yeah also unfollow staff. it will make you look normal 👍

Thank you for your response but literally I'm not sure how to take it at face value because I witness on real time you reblogging stuff for the fyeah blog and there's a number of people you passed over whilst acknowledging others. I just take it because you know them but it's put me off big style because handpicking 'popular' creators to interact with is pretty common on here. I know you can't interact with everyone but it's just suspicious you only pick people with their posts commanding a lot of notes. There's a lot of random people making OCs so I'm guessing you're making sure what is most beneficial to you subconsciously

Don't worry about it we interact with the community in different ways so it's cool you do it your way and I'll just keep away and do my own little thing and won't tag the fyeah blog etc

I think there's been a misunderstanding here. If you want reach, tag the fyeah blog. That's the best way I know and how I met the friends I have right now. I reblog stuff for the fyeah blog, yes. But I only reblog stuff for the fyeah blog that has the fyeah tag. That's how fyeah blogs work. The fyeah blog is an old concept and I'm just a worker bee for one of them. The people whose posts I reblog have that many notes probably because they got reach through the fyeah blog or through the ocappreciation blog. You've got your causalities mixed up, but I get why that would happen. There's no way to tell when a post got its notes. Also I tend to be fairly late on some of the reblogs because I'm busy studying, so that might be another reason.

If the people I passed over have the tag #fyeahonepieceocs on their posts, I honestly don't know how I managed to miss them. We had a phase where all mods were busy and nobody had the time to reblog anything, but I was convinced that we had caught up. If the posts are older than the fyeah blog then that's also a possible reason. The only other reason I could think of is that I could have someone blocked, but I don't block any blogs except ones that look strikingly like bots. Which, for any new Tumblr users: If you haven't changed your profile picture and don't have a description or anything, people will assume you're a bot and block you just to be safe. That's nothing against you personally, that's basic Tumblr safety.

Either way, my point being: I don't reblog posts based on popularity, I reblog posts solely based on whether they have a certain tag, which is stated in the blog description. If there's posts that I'm missing, please let me know. The process for fyeah blog reblogging is literally: I check the fyeah tag, then I queue all the posts since my last check in chronological order. That's it.

My second point: Please, do the opposite of what you said in your last paragraph. I'm asking you to send me a message so I can get to see your OCs. How do you expect me do find your OCs if I don't even know what your URL is? Or just send me your post somehow? If you want me to appreciate your OC, I need to see it, so let me see it.

I hope this cleared things up in case you were confused about how reblogging for the fyeah blog works. If this is a me problem of me not seeing posts in the fyeah tag, I can try asking someone else to help out, but otherwise I don't know how to help you. We as a mod team do not have the capacity to go through the entire one piece oc tag, especially since I'm currently solo-ing the blog because everyone else is busy, so we narrow it down to just the fyeah tag. If your post isn't in that tag, that's not our fault.

Once again, hope this helped, hope it didn't come off as rude and hope to get a message from you with your OCs!

Say something nice about @lfthinker @hoodienanami and @midnightsingvogel or so help me GOD I will beat you!!

like you need an excuse to beat me

ah some of my most loyal and beloved pies @lfthinker - she's a cracking writer and her dedication to her work is admirable, I haven't read all of her big fic but I've enjoyed the bits and pieces I have read! Always has good takes

@hoodienanami - is very sweet and caring, she always provides an interesting perspective and is very passionate about the things she enjoys!

@midnightsingvogel - always lovely and a fun time, will come up with a pun or play on words that'll make you wish you thought of it first

I care for and value each of these people 💞

[xoxoemynn]

I've got two urls for you: @rainbowbonnet and @montygreen

omg two GEMS!

@rainbowbonnet was one of the first people I followed in this fandom, in all honesty probably drawn in by that amazing URL. But do you know how like there may be a house in your neighborhood with a really nice garden out front, and you know it's there because it's just a part of your neighborhood, but still every time you walk past it you have to stop and stare at it a bit because it just makes you smile and feel good? And you're just like "ahhhh, yes, this beautiful place is part of my world and I feel so much better knowing it's always there"? That's basically how I think of Addi. The loveliest of constants, so kind and warm and thoughtful, always brings a smile on my face whenever I see her on my dash.

@montygreen!!! Is just.......one of the most talented humans in existence?? Her gifs are absolute works of art, and her writing is just phenomenal, truly some of my favorite stories I've read in this fandom. And not only that, she's BRILLIANT. Like actually so so smart, she goes off talking about all her bio work and my jaw is on the floor. But even more importantly, she's SO kind and welcoming and encouraging. She instantly makes you feel like you are part of her family and boosts everybody up, and it's so genuinely and lovely. (Also, she is a lady of exquisite taste and loves Crazy Ex Girlfriend, so she automatically gets another dozen gold stars or so.)

Thank you, anon! Hope you're having a lovely evening! 💕

aim lesbiante- i mean dykesymmetry and egg technothefruit

Oh man Carson always has interesting takes. I do not always agree with said takes, especially as my move is to not post about things I dislike, not go after them on main, and I think he would actually probably really dislike me in real life so there's always the tiptoeing around effect when I see their blog, but I always enjoy the "oh ho ho ho what is Carson up to now" effect. Top notch drama vector. Oh and we so agree on The Mountain Goats, fantastic band.

I hear Egg is planning on deleting their tumblr, and I hope wherever they go next they find a community and surroundings they thrive in. Used to see them on my dash at the height of techno-posting, but saw less when they drifted more into other interests. But I have definitely put Mob Psycho 100 on the to be watched list because of them.

Pinned Post Re-do. Again.

About Me

Rainbow

Url used to be @rainbowpie14

Discord is rainbowsk1es but I probably won't accept requests if I can't tell who you are

Any Pronouns

Lesbian

Minor

Christian but normal about it (I post about religion sometimes but it's tagged)

American of Italian and Puerto Rican descent (White, Hispanic + Latina)

Any personal information that's not here I probably won't tell you. I do not post my face.

Tagging

#rainbow's mind 24/7 is most original posts

#rainbow's thoughts on life is reflections on my experiences & people I've met

#rainbow rants is me complaining

#my art and #my writing are for if I get around to making anything I want to share

#reblog is what it says

I tend to use a lot of generic categorization tags for fandoms, ships, characters, art and writing, tutorials, animals, etc.

I use #unreality, #tw blood, and #tw gore where necessary and try to avoid guilt trippy "you must reblog this" posts

If you need other trigger tags just ask but I may say no if I don't think I'll remember. I won't tag caps and swearing for sure I used to but I post way too much of them and will forget

DNI

I'm not doing a whole big list anymore. If you're a bigot, exclusionist, or send people death threats I'll block you because you suck. If you mostly post NSFW I'll block if you try to follow because I keep this blog SFW besides the occasional mild joke. If you're under 13 and admit to it, I'll block you if you try to follow because I want you to have a good childhood and not be on Tumblr. Other than that I think most Tumblr discourse is pointless but if you really want to know where I stand on something, ask.

Sideblogs

@yourfaveislesbian: Putting your favorite characters on the lesbian flag (I tend to post in sporadic bursts)

@magnus-institute-official: Me and @stardustedlyra roleplay an AU of the Magnus Archives (inactive but maybe we'll go back to it someday)

@ask-drtk: Me and a bunch of friends' askblog for characters from a roleplay (not running yet but we'll probably get there eventually)

@sideblog-with-everyone: Trying to get as many Tumblr users on a sideblog as possible. Feel free to join! (I'm not an admin but I figured I'd help promote the effort as I am still on the account)

Fandoms, other hobbies & interests, any random shit I feel like putting in the future, and credits for images under cut. I probably will update that section more some day.

Fandoms & Media-Related Interests

There are varying degrees of activity here. Some of these might just be occasional analysis or gameplay posts, some I also do ship and read fic and stuff in. Sometimes I may post other stuff too if I see something cool for an old/less serious interest I don't follow much or I forgot to update this.

Keeper Of The Lost Cities

Warrior Cats

The Hunger Games

The Magnus Archives

The Magnus Protocol

Witch Hat Atelier

Azumanga Daioh

Sanrio Characters

Yotsuba&! (Still reading)

Akiba Maid War (Still watching)

The Sims (Especially Sims 4)

Animal Crossing (Especially New Leaf, Happy Home Decorator, and New Horizons)

A lot of music, but my favorite bands are Paramore and The Crane Wives

If you want to know more about anything on here, characters and ships I like, etc., please ask! If you want to recommend me something, go for it as well! After I finish the two things still in progress on here I probably will start Dungeon Meshi next though.

Other Interests

Trombone (I've been playing for 6 years)

My own and my friends' OCs

Computer Science

Languages, especially etymology and names

Science, especially biology

Writing

Drawing
