don’t desperately try to aproach popular bloggers, befriend someone that’s reachable instead
randomly send nice messages to people on your dash
if you see a sad post on your dash, always ask the poster if they’re ok
compliment others out of the blue
blacklist anything that makes you uncomfortable
unfollow blogs if you don’t like their posts anymore, even if they’re friends. they’ll understand.
keep the fuck away from drama
know that publicly voicing an opinion has consequences, if you’re not ready to deal with them, talk to mutuals/friends privately instead of making a post
if you need attention, don’t reblog those askgames, send asks to people/friends instead (askgames are usually disappointing if you’re not a popular blog)
blog for yourself, not your followers
you can even install a thing that hides your follower count if you find yourself checking that number too often
if you get hate, block them and delete it immediately. don’t read it and definitely don’t reread it and most definitely don’t beat yourself up about it
keep your dash varied, even if your blog is focused on one thing. seeing something different on your dash every once in a while is refreshing.
