Is it just me or are the new tumblr users convinced there's a penalty of some kind for using this site like it's meant to be used?
reblogs have always been in short supply for artists, sadly, but it's hitting the shitposts and even the cat pictures lately. Gotta keep getting the word out that reblogs are good and keep people posting new material that will be passed around for the next 12 years
They’re used to other social media sites, where the only equivalent of reblogging is straight-up content theft; so the idea that you can put someone else’s stuff on your page and have it not be a bad thing is a strange experience for them.
They’re likely also used to an algorithm recommending content based on what they hit “like” on, so they probably think that that’s how this works, too.
That and I think some people confuse “reblog” with “repost” so when they see someone saying “don’t repost” they think it applies to reblogging stuff.
Yeah it's a bummer, love that we have yearly nonsense dates. But we can't keep them if people don't participate
Once again reminding the gang that you can turn reblogs off
As in, if people don’t want you to reblog their stuff, you just plain can’t
No muss, no fuss, no asking and hoping people respect your boundaries
You turn that button off
If the reblog button is available on a post and it doesn’t contain the words “do not reblog this” in some form, you are invited to reblog it
Share content on your blog or watch it perish fam
You sound like a PSA trying to be hip but it's still a PSA so it has a good message to listen to.
That was pretty much the point but I forgot the most important part!
