tips to improve your tumblr experience

• 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.
• install a cute dashboard theme
• don’t believe everything you see or read
• have patience with others
