Tumblr is a beloved social media platform frequented by many teenage and young adults. It is designed to be a microblogging social media platform. It offers many customizable features for its users to set up a unique profile.
You can use it to create a blog about your hobbies, showcase your artwork, or simply blog about a topic you’re interested in. You can also follow other Tumblr blogs you find interesting.
When you follow a Tumblr blog, you’ll be able to see everything they post, including photos, videos, and GIFs on your dashboard. Preferably this would result in a highly curated feed of content that is of interest to you. If however, you feel like your timeline has become overcrowded and you’d like to start fresh, we’ve provided a simple guide on how to unfollow everyone on Tumblr.
