'DNI' does not mean anything.
It is your responsibility to block people that you do not wish to interact with here on Tumblr.com, because this is a pubic forum.
If you posts are rebloggable, if you have notes enabled, if you post with searchable tags, your posts are leaving your blog. It is going out into the aether and will appear on other people's searches and 'For You' pages. Your bio is not visible on every post that you make. No other users are required to read your bio.
This is not tiktok, this is not twitter, this is not instagram. Tumblr is different than other social media sites.
You have a block button, and you have the power to disable reblogs. You have the power to turn notes on and off. You have the power to make posts private. You have the power to make your blog viewable only by friends. Open up your Blog Settings and see what you can do.

Furthermore, DNI's are futile and, frankly, manipulative - they are demanding behaviors and actions of other people.

What Boundaries Are and Aren’t
Boundaries are not about controlling others
So many people think boundaries are controlling, but this is not true.
In reality, we can’t control others, and attempting to control is both ineffective and disrespectful to the other person.
Trying to control can be harmful to relationships because it prevents you from accepting and loving the other person as they are.
Boundaries are knowing that we DO have a choice so we can take ownership of our choices.
Boundaries are YOUR business
Boundaries are your business. The other person’s actions are not.
A lot of people misunderstand boundaries. It’s not “don’t treat me like that.” It is “If you do ___, I will ____.”
It is okay to say “I don’t like the way you’re treating me, so I won’t stick around. But you can do what you want.” In some circumstances, you can say things like “Stop” or “Please step back.” Some situations call for firm, direct boundaries, like if someone intends to harm you.
Boundaries are your actions
Remember, the other person is free. You are also free to do what you will do.
Minding our business is knowing and enforcing our boundaries. It’s not controlling someone else. It’s taking action by responding consciously.
Setting boundaries is about knowing what boundaries you want to establish and enforcing them by taking action within yourself. It’s not taking action to control someone else.
A boundary is not “You aren’t allowed to do ______,” it is “If you do _______, I will _______.”
It’s not “don’t yell at me,” “don’t call me before work hours,” or “stop commenting on my weight.”
“If you yell at me, I will leave the room or hang up the phone.”
“If you call me before 9 am, I will let the call go to voicemail and call you back during work hours.”
“If you keep commenting on my weight, I will stop visiting.”
A boundary is an action YOU take. It’s not forcing someone to act or not to act a certain way, because that’s impossible.
Boundaries are your responsibility
A lot of people set a “boundary” or a rule and then get mad at someone else for breaking the boundary.
It’s not their job to not do what you don’t want them to. It’s your job to respond in a conscious way that protects your boundary, not to be reactive.
This is similar to my view on “triggers”. It’s not effective to set rules and insist others follow them. We’re not in charge of others, we’re in charge of ourselves. After all, we wouldn’t appreciate it if someone tried to impose their own rules on us.
Ultimately, boundaries are up to you. They are your actions and your decisions based on your limits. They are meant to protect you, not to control others.
