Turdblr - Tumblr Posts
Soooo, I hit this milestone about 2 weeks ago, & this is actually my 7th post, I think. But I couldn't post it directly from this insufferable app, bcoz it kept sending me error messages. Therefore, I have to post a screenshot. However, I could literally post anything & everything else, including my 1000 likes milestone earlier today. No clue why this happened. Turdblr, it's time to fix this bug. 🙄
I'd like to add three more things:
I just realized u can't even crop, let alone edit pics in this app. I mean, is the bar really in hell???
Also, where the hell is the archives section of the blogs??? It makes the whole scrolling through a blog business sooo much easier!! Can someone please tell me if that's a browser-special feature or something? Bcoz it's visible only on Chrome.
I also realized you can't edit your replies to posts. Seriously wow. 🤦♀
Sooo, Tumblr is telling me I have 1 message in my inbox, but I couldn't find anything at all when I opened it???
I tried to look for answers on the internet, & it seems like this is a glitch. To delete the notification, I have to send myself a message & hit "delete all messages". But I have no clue how that works, either. 😕 Can someone please help? @staff
If any of y'all (my followers) sent me anything, please send it again in my dms, or comment on this post.
TW: Vent Post ⚠️
I just realized we're so close to 200 followers... But I have no idea if we can actually reach that milestone. I've lost so many mutuals and followers out of nowhere, and it still keeps happening. Every time I gain a new follower, I lose 3 more. Sometimes my follower count decreases after I gain new followers??? It's just painfully comical, seeing my follower count fluctuate randomly. I swear this must be some sort of technical glitch or something. Because there's no way people are actually unfollowing me as I gain new followers, at the same time?? Something's definitely not adding up. The first couple of times this happened, I didn't mind it as much. But then it became a consistent pattern. Losing around 3 followers for every new follower I gain, so that there's never a net increase in followers. The graph is always a goddamn plateau, if I'm lucky. And the saddest part is, I have to follow people back if I want to ensure that they keep following me. This is why I feel incredibly hurt when a mutual randomly unfollows me for no reason. Another really interesting thing I've noticed is that, my follower count only "increases" when p0₹n bots start following me. 🙂 I wish I was kidding. And then it goes back to the previous count after they're blocked and reported. But this never happens when I gain actual, human followers. Then the follower count decreases, like I mentioned before. It's so frustrating.
People say this is the site where follower count is insignificant, but I don't think that's true. Every other day I come across posts celebrating the event of hitting a particular follower milestone, and their follower count is always MASSIVE. I'm talking 1k+ , sometimes even 10k+ . And then I think of my pathetic little blog which hasn't even managed to reach 200 followers in 2 fucking years. I feel miserable. It seems like only the blogs that literally spam-upload posts are the ones that have thousands of followers (by "spam-upload" I mean posting like, 20-30 posts in a minute??? 50 in half an hour??? And they always seem to upload stolen posts with irrelevant, clout-chasing tags 💀) It's so unfair, because this implies that you have to blog like your life depends on it, in order to gain followers. You can't be inactive for a few months, because then you'll lose all the engagement. This isn't me begging for followers btw, just a vent post because I felt like screaming into the void.
