Can My Secondary Tumblr Reply? Let’s Dive Into the Tumblrverse!
So, you’ve set up a secondary Tumblr (or as we like to call it, a sideblog) and you’re wondering if you can seamlessly engage and reply to posts without everyone connecting the dots? Well, grab your favorite beverage and let’s spill the tea!
First off, can people actually know that your sideblog is yours? The short answer is maybe. It’s a bit like a magical cloak of invisibility; it helps, but there are loopholes. Tumblr has this funky feature called “Show author portraits” that you can only access via the desktop version (yes, the PC or Chrome’s sneaky desktop mode on your phone). When this feature is ON for your sideblog, every post will flaunt your main blog’s profile picture. Ta-da! Instant family reunion on the dashboard.
But no worries! If you prefer to keep the ‘mystery’ alive, you can simply disable that feature. Gotta love the power of the toggle!
Now, let’s talk privacy! If you’re on a crusade for the ultimate secret hideout, you’re in luck. There are several nifty options to amp up your privacy game:
- Disable “Share posts you like”: Uncheck that box, and voilà, your likes stay secret!
- Disable “Share the Tumblrs you’re following”: Your follow list can be your little secret garden.
- Enable “Hide [account name] from people without an account”: This is like putting up a ‘No Trespassing’ sign but in digital form.
- Enable “Discourage searching of [account name]”: It’s like saying, “Hey Google, shhh!”
For more info that would make even the most private Tumblr user swoon, check out these privacy options.
And, if you’re feeling a bit anti-social with your sideblog, you can block those mutual followers from peeking. Just hop over to the settings on your sideblog in desktop mode, find “blocked tumblrs,” type in their names, and voilà! They’ve been blocked from your private paradise without knowing a thing.
