Absolutely, you can block users on Tumblr, and thank goodness for that! Sometimes the internet can be a quirky place, and not everyone is as lovely as a kitten meme. Blocking ensures you don’t have to deal with anyone whose posts make your brain feel like it’s stuck in a whirlwind of nonsense.
So here’s how you can save yourself from unwanted drama, one click at a time. Whether you’re lounging on your couch with your phone or glued to your computer, blocking unwanted users is a swift and painless process. First, hop onto your Tumblr dashboard. To find the user you want to block, simply click or tap on their avatar. This action will take you to their blog, which, let’s hope, has more to offer than just cat gifs and unsolicited opinions.
Now, once you’re on their fanciful little blog, look for the mysterious three-dot menu (also known as the meatballs menu — don’t you love that?) in the corner. Give that little trio a poke! Up will pop the option to block that pesky user, and just like that, you can say goodbye to their posts (and your sanity!).
Did you notice something interesting? You can actually block a user from the dashboard too! How convenient, right? If you happen to stumble upon one of their posts while scrolling, just find that same cheeky meatballs menu on the post itself and select “Block.” Voila! The digital equivalent of slamming the door in someone’s face.
For those of you wrestling with feelings of guilt over this decision, let me ease that conscience. Blocking isn’t just self-care; it’s part of maintaining your harmonious online space. Think of it as curating your own garden of delightful content. Nobody wants weeds choking the life out of their beautiful tulips!
What about unblocking someone? No problem! If you ever decide to reopen the floodgates, you can revisit your block list in your settings and remove anyone from your ‘no-fly zone.’
So, to put it simply, yes, you can block users on Tumblr easily and conveniently from various spots on the site or app. Take control of your feed and enjoy a more enjoyable Tumblr experience. Happy scrolling!
