How to Block/Filter Out Certain Tags

Hello, some people are being silly geese and sending hate to people posting fanfic content that they don't want to see.

Keep in mind, your media consumption is your responsibility.

But I understand everyone has triggers, icks, and things they don't want to see or read. So...

Here is a step by step guide to block posts with certain tags on Tumblr mobile app.

1. Go to your account, and tap on the little gear in the top right corner.

2. After tapping on the gear, you will find yourself at the account settings page with everything about your account and it's settings. Tap on the first option, account settings.

3. Once in account settings, you'll want to go down and tap on "Content You See", which is where you can have more control over the content that is viewable to you on Tumblr.

4. YAY! We are now where you can edit what is visible to you on Tumblr. You can simply filter out certain tags, or you can also filter out specific content and content types as well. Go wild! Customize your viewing experience if you wish.

And you're done!

1. For You: this is curated content tumblr thinks you will like. It's algorithm based.

Another thing to keep in mind: dashboards! If you don't filter out tags, you may see things on your dash you don't wish to. There are three different dashs on Tumblr.

2. Following: this is posts and reblogs from people you follow!

3. Your tags: exactly how it sounds, these are posts with tags you follow.

Hope these tips and information will help you enjoy and know a bit more about Tumblr. Instead of sending hate to creators, maybe try these steps first.
