Tumblr Tuesday (from the vaults of 2021)

It’s a Tuesday and we are on Tumblr and the 2021st year is coming to a close. This is when we like to look back and see what we all loved and loathed together here on Tumblr in the last twelve months. 

But what if you could take a walk through your past year on Tumblr? Which text post resonated most with your followers? How many my beloved locket GIFs did you make? What’s the reblog chain you added to that blew all the others out of the water? 

Welcome to your year in review. Literally. Year In Review (Y/N’s version).

  1. Read this post. (Or don’t and just tap that sweet, sweet link. You’ll figure it out.)
  2. >>> This is that link we just mentioned. <<<
  3. Select the URL of the blog you’d like to review (you can select any of your blogs, primary, secondary, they’re all worthy).
  4. Look out the window/load Genshin/knit a row/read a oneshot/stroke a cat. The little sooties will need a minute to gather your biggest posts.

What’s your favorite post of your 2021 on Tumblr?

It’s Tumblr’s 2021 Year in Review!

Every year, the team behind Fandometrics pores over enough data to block a proverbial Suez Canal. We analyze all of the tags, searches, posts, and every like and reblog on this blue hellsite (affectionate), categorizing the most popular stuff on Tumblr so we can give the gift of Year in Review in December. 

Tumblr’s Year in Review contains a full 365 days’ worth of data, but it runs from October 21, 2020, to October 20, 2021. Supernatural fans, we know you were disappointed with Destiel going canon being absent from last year’s Year in Review. So you’re finally going to see November 5, 2020, represented. This is your payout. 

Like you, Year in Review has grown this past year. Matured. A glow up, if you will. You might notice some changes that reflect that, like a more inclusive Celebs list to replace the old Actors and Actresses lists. Or all TV shows (previously live-action, animated, and reality)  under one list header for the first time. And an extra special, extra personal little somethin’ that will remain a surprise until December 7…👀

Keep your eyes peeled to this space all month long, Tumblr. The lists are all live now (go, go, go!), but we’ve got all sorts of goodies coming your way. Now, onto the good stuff.

tumblr tuesday: after dark

This one goes out to all the late wakers and slow risers, the long sleepers, the nighttime creepers—whatever your current time of day. Sometimes, the late night light can be something to celebrate. While some sleep, streetlights pour glassy neon out over nocturnal nothings: a moment of quiet, brought to you by photographers from all around the world who stay up late and capture the magic. Here, have a little after-hours aesthetique for your troubles.

Listen up if you use tagged pages on your blog!

Hello,

From Dec 1, 2021, we’ll be changing how tags in URLs are parsed, making searching for tags with special characters or multiple words more precise. You can choose to opt in ahead of time via a toggle over at tumblr.com/customize. Read on for more info.

What’s this about? We’re telling you about a new setting you can toggle on the web at tumblr.com/customize, to support spaces, hyphens, plus signs, and underscores in tags. After Dec 1, this change will be enabled on all blogs, but you’ll still be able to opt out using the same toggle.

Who will be affected by this change? Anyone who has:

  • Bookmarked /tagged or /search pages;
  • /tagged or /search page links in a post, a blog’s theme or description, or somewhere outside of Tumblr.

What do you need to do? If that’s you, click here or head to tumblr.com/customize and toggle the “Use better tagged and search URL decoding.”

image

You’ll need to update any hard-coded URLs to /tagged and /search pages that you added manually to those URLs. However, you won’t need to make any updates to the tags on your posts.

Questions? Read the original announcement on changes, read the Help Center article here, let us know what you think over on @wip, or reach out to Support with any queries.

Holiday Blues with Tumblr

Feeling down? Dreading the short days and long nights? Well, this holiday season, Tumblr is here to help you conquer your Sunday Scaries all week long!

We’ve partnered with amazing yogis, wellness brands, and mental health enthusiasts to bring you Holiday Blues with Tumblr. With a huge shift in the weather, hours of daylight, seasonal affective disorder season, and whatever else the world is throwing at us this week (🐝Murder Hornets just entered the group chat), we want to empower you to participate in some transformational acts of self-care 🤗.

Don’t worry, we know ‘self-care’ can feel like a chore, not to mention another dent in the bank account. That’s why Tumblr wants to meet you where you are—on your dash.

How does it work, you ask?

EASY! PEASY! LEMON 🍋 SQUEEZY! All we need from you is to show up; we’ll take it from there! Over the next six weeks, Tumblr and our partners will host LIVE classes: fitness classes, mindfulness exercises, interactive quizzes, playlists, and maybe even a dance party.

What if you miss class?

NO STRESS!! We’ve thought of it all. If you can’t make it to the live class (you will be sorely missed), each class will be available here on Post It Forward or on our Youtube channel.

Get to the point! When is the FUN?

Hold your horses — starting November 22nd until January 2nd, here’s what you have to look forward to:

📿Mindful Mondays📿

LIVE morning meditations run by some cool folx

💗Wellness Wednesdays 💗

Mood-boosting tips, tricks & playlists 

💪Flex Fridays💪

LIVE CLASSES and all the yoga 🧘 your heart could desire. All levels welcome—Yoga is for everybody and EVERY BODY

💆Self-Care Sundays💆

Think expressive writing meets self-discovery … with a dash of Dance Dance Revolution. And did we mention, it’s LIVE?

⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️

We will also have reminders for each class…. we told you WE GOT YOU!

Calm your mind with Mindful Monday on 11/22 (add to your calendar)

Break a sweat with Flex Friday on 11/26 (add to your calendar)

Pamper yourself with Self-Care Sunday on 11/28 (add to your calendar)

image

A Few Gentle Reminders:

  • Make the time for yourself if you think it might make you feel better 🤗.
  • Showing up is the hardest part. You take care of that and we will take care of the rest.
  • This is meant to be fun (and we want to make sure you do JUST THAT here on Tumblr).
  • This is YOUR JOURNEY, so do it your way! Take the classes that make you feel good. Come to the live sessions, or just catch them later. Show up to every class, or do the same class every day for the next six weeks. You do you, boo boo.

One LAST thing:

LIKE, SHARE, and BE THERE!

We need your help to spread positive vibes as we conquer the Holiday Blues. Use the tag #HolidayBluesWithTumblr to share reflections from Mindful Monday , a sweaty selfie from Flex Friday, or anything that comes up for you after a Self-Care Sunday session.

Mark your calendars!

tumblr tuesday: gather round

Pov: you are a plucky little possum rolling your favorite trinkets into your humble winter hovel for company. No one can argue with that.

Keeping…tabs…on your dashboard 😏

If you’re scrolling Tumblr on one of our mobile apps, you’ve probably already noticed these two snazzy chaps at the top of your dashboard. These are tabs, a ~revolutionary~ new way of organizing, now available right here on your dashboard.

image

“Following” is your classic dashboard experience packed with posts from all the blogs and tags you follow. “Stuff for you” is an ever-expanding personalized mess of fresh content organically sourced from all across Tumblr. Yes, this is it: the dreaded algorithm. This is where it dwells, in its own place, where you can choose to go—as, when, and if you please.

It’s the beginning of something quite beautiful, really.

Some things we’re still working on:

  • We want you to have more control over how you enjoy Tumblr, so we’ll be adding the option to toggle each tab on and off, and eventually, configure your own tabs.
  • Thanks to those of you who gave feedback on this while we were testing it out, we’re aware of some bugs with the swipe sensitivity. Those should be resolved in version 21.9 and above.
  • Some of you found the swipe gesture itself annoying, so we’re working on a setting that allows you to disable swiping entirely.
  • We’re currently fixing the home button and the logo so that they take you back to the top of a tab as is only right and proper.
  • Some of you mainly use Tumblr on the web. Hey, that’s cool. We hope to be bringing tabs to your Tumblr web experience soon.

If you have feedback about tabs, please get in touch—either with the good folks at support or the @wip humans on Mondays. And keep up with all tabs-related changes over on—you guessed it—@changes. Happy tabbing, Tumblr.
