Can I Follow Tumblrs from My Second Tumblr? Let’s Dive into the Tumbliverse!
Ah, the world of Tumblr! A digital playground for memes, fan art, and some seriously intense subcultures. You’re probably here because you’ve got a burning question: “Can I follow Tumblrs from my second Tumblr?” Well, let’s break it down, shall we?
First off, it’s important to note that your sideblog is like that mysterious, artsy twin that nobody really knows about—unless, of course, you spill the beans by linking your sideblog to your main blog. If your plan is to keep things hush-hush, you’ll want to avoid reblogging from one to the other like it’s nobody’s business. Without those awkward links and reblogs, most people won’t even know your sideblog is, well, yours. But let’s keep it real—if someone’s determined enough sniffing around, they might just put two and two together if they notice your likes and reblogs popping up at the same time.
But Wait, Can People See That My Sideblogs Are Mine?
Let me spin you a little yarn about this feature called “Show author portraits.” Sounds cool, right? Here’s the catch—this option is only available on sideblogs and can typically be accessed through your desktop version of Tumblr. When enabled, each post from your sideblog shows a charming little portrait of your main blog’s profile picture. So, guess what? They’ll know it’s you! To play it safe and keep your secret sideblog status, simply disable this feature—and voilà, you’re a mysterious Tumblr phantom!
If you’re all about privacy—which, who isn’t in this day and age?—you can fine-tune your settings even further:
- Disable “Share posts you like” in your main account settings.
- Disable “Share the Tumblrs you’re following”—again, in your settings.
- Enable “Hide [account name] from people without an account” for both your main and side accounts.
- Enable “Discourage searching of [account name]” so folks can’t easily find you.

Now, if you’re hoping to dodge any mutuals from sneaking a peek at your sideblog, you can block them specifically from that blog. Just navigate to your settings on the sideblog (desktop mode, please!), and dig into the “blocked Tumblrs” section. Type in their username, and kaboom! You’ve successfully executed block 101. They get to keep following your main account, but that’s their loss, right?
Now, before you get too tangled in the webs of blog management, remember: the current Tumblr interface isn’t exactly user-friendly for managing multiple blogs. Your best bet? Multiple logins! Create separate logins with different email addresses, and transfer your tumblogs accordingly if that’s the route you want to take.
So there you have it! The ins and outs of following Tumblrs from your second Tumblr. But if you have more questions or need resources about this delightful enigma, don’t hesitate to connect with us! We love to chat about all things Tumblr!
