Can I See Who Has Me on Notifications on Tumblr? Spoiler: Not Really!
Alright, let’s dive right into this conundrum, shall we? If you’ve been scratching your head wondering if you can see who’s been hitting that little bell on your Tumblr notifications, you’re not alone! Many fellow Tumblrs have been in your exact position, lamenting the fact that we’re left wandering in the endless fields of notification mysteries.
First things first, let’s acknowledge the elephant in the room: no, Tumblr does not offer a feature that lets you see who you’ve set notifications for. Crazy, right? While platforms like Twitter (okay, okay it’s now called ‘X’ but let’s not get into that tragic rebranding) allow you to manage notifications with the finesse of a tactical ninja, Tumblr seems to be stuck in a time warp. What do we call it? A “notification trap”! Classic Tumblr drama.
Here’s the kicker: you can follow over 2,000 people but you’ve got absolutely no clue how many notifications you’ve turned on. Want the actual number? Good luck. It feels like a shot in the dark! It’s like that awkward moment when you show up to a party and realize you don’t know anyone there. Oof.
So, what can you do? I spied a few tricks from the crowd, and as much as they’re not “groundbreaking,” they might help you feel a little more in control of that notification chaos. If you want to manage notifications (on an iPhone only), you can make the most of your lock screen. Turn on your banner notifications, and swipe down to see a list pop up. Open Instagram notifications, tap the bell, and voilà, you can turn off notifications one by one… but uh, good luck doing that for 2,000 accounts. Not exactly a time-saver, but every bit counts, right?
Ultimately, if you want a feature that makes sense, you might need to take your complaints directly to Tumblr’s support team. If there’s enough noise, you never know—they might just throw us a bone!
So, if all of this has left you feeling a bit lost, or if you have further questions about Tumblr or any other wild internet rabbit hole, feel free to live connect with us. We’ve got your back!
