How do i Tumblr?
I love Tumblr, but seriously, its functionality has been a constant source of frustration. I spent the first two months unable to scroll down my dashboard, access messages or see if I had followers. (Switching to Firefox was the answer.) I used to get reblog notifications, but they stopped. Sometimes I get new follower notifications, but not consistently. That's all ok. As long as I can scroll infinitely, it's good.
My problem: I added a new blog using the + sign at the top menu. (I want a personal blog to use, and I like the idea of not having to sign out and log in to another account.) So I went to add some of your Tumblrs to my New Blog, but since Old Blog follows you already, I can't follow you as "New Blog." (i.e., if I go to your page, the only option is to check "unfollow.") There's only one Dashboard, so I'll still see your posts, but if I go to follow someone new, will they see that Old Blog added them or New Blog added them? If I reblog someone, I want it to appear on New Blog because I just want to keep the content of Old Blog concentrated on GN photo manips.
Any advice, people with multiple Tumblrs? Thanks
EDIT: I think I found my answer under their help pages: "an additional blog cannot Follow another blog, Like a post, Reply to a post, Ask a question, or Submit a post. Those are examples of being the initiator of a social feature and those actions can only be performed by a primary blog." Dammit, guess I'm going to have to create a new blog and sign in and out all the time.
