How to Sneak a Peek at Someone’s Likes on Tumblr
So, you’ve wandered into the magical realm of Tumblr and you’re wondering how to check out someone’s likes, huh? Well, grab your virtual magnifying glass because I’m about to spill the tea on a nifty little trick you can use to unlock that mystery! 🍵✨
First off, if you mean those adorable little heart-shaped buttons we click like there’s no tomorrow, then you’re in luck! To check someone’s October feast of “likes,” just type in that magical web address: username.tumblr.com/likes. Replace “username” with the person’s Tumblr name, and voila! You’re staring right into their heart-shaped treasure trove of appreciated posts. 🎉
But hold your horses – this method is only as good as the account’s privacy settings! If they’ve set their Tumblr to private, you’ll just get the dreaded “404 Not Found” error, which in Tumblr-ese means “No peeking for you, my friend!” If it’s open to the public, enjoy the scroll—there’s some juicy content waiting for you.
Now, if you’re a little more technologically savvy (or just like to pretend you are), I’ve got a bonus hack that’s a bit more intricate, yet oh-so-exciting. Ready? Let’s dive into the world of source code! 🕵️♂️
Source Code Shenanigans
First, navigate to the likes page: username.tumblr.com/likes. Now, hit Ctrl + U (or ⌘ + U on a Mac) to open up the source code. You’re going to be deciphering the Matrix for a moment here! Select all that code, and paste it into a basic text editor like Notepad (Windows) or TextEdit (Mac). Make sure it’s set to “plain text” because we’re no fancy HTML wizards over here.
Once you’ve pasted it all in, save that puppy as whateveryouwant.html. Don’t let it tack on a .txt extension; we want it to recognize as HTML, not some dull document. Then, open a new browser window or go incognito mode – because *who doesn’t love a little incognito action?* 🕶️
Drag that freshly baked HTML file into your browser. You should behold a beautiful array of links to all those posts they liked! Spoiler alert: if you click any links back to their account, you might find yourself facing another “webpage not found” moment. This means you’re getting a peek, but they’re keeping the rest of their digital kingdom under wraps. You can share this file with your friend, and let the liking exploration begin!
Other Ways to Dig Deeper
Now, if the above feels too much like a scavenger hunt with no map, or if you’re simply in the mood for shortcuts, there’s always the trusty Unix Timestamp method. Go to unixtimestamp.com and input a date to get a timestamp number. Append that number at the end of tumblr.com/likes?before=. It’s like creating portals through time and space… or just looking at likes from a different day!
However, before you don your explorer’s hat, know that unless they reblogged and tagged a post specifically, you can’t search their likes based on tags. It’s like trying to find a needle in a haystack where you can’t even see the haystack! 🤷♂️
If you’re still itching for more, rumor has it there may be extensions to make all this searching easier. Who doesn’t love a good shortcut? Just know, I can’t name names or provide guarantees on success here, so good luck!
