Hey folks, there’s a bug in the iOS app that causes tags to be retained when reblogging a post. We’ve got a fix ready to go in version 23.9 of the iOS app, which should be released sometime this week.
Hello! Happy solstice. What’s this, you ask? Well, it’s a Tuesday. It’s also the end of one of Algy’s adventures in Patadragonia. Who’s Algy? Algy is a friend-shaped accidental adventurer. In this particular part of his story, he helps a dragon with some mad dance moves join the circus. In Patadragonia. (Sound on for total immersion.)
On the morning of the solstice…
…in the faraway land of Patadragonia, dawn broke with a beautiful deep pink glow over the mountains, and ethereal mists shimmered up from the frosty plains. Algy was still dozing after his long, sleepless night under the full moon when suddenly he heard a most extraordinary sound, and at the same time, he felt the special cherry blossom which he had brought all the way from the magical Easter island begin to vibrate and sparkle on the cold, bare rock behind him…
There was no doubt about it: the moment had arrived…Algy knew that his little dragon friend was about to realize its lifelong dream at last, and although he was sure that he would miss the funny wee creature, he could not have been happier for his very special friend, especially as he felt certain that—so long as he kept the magical cherry blossom safe—they would be bound to meet again in adventures yet to come…
[The circus band is playing the “National Emblem March,” composed in 1902 by Edwin Eugene Bagley, in a version created by Algy’s assistants.]
Something VERY exciting has happened to Algy - a unique tumblr adventure which he never even dreamed of…
A wee while ago, Algy was approached by tumblr staff and asked whether he would be interested in appearing in a special “Tumblr Tuesday” feature on the staff blog… well, you can imagine what he said!
And this is one of the reasons why Algy’s adventures here on his own blog have been on pause the past couple of weeks… It wasn’t only because his assistant had to work in her garden, although that was true too.
So Algy sends his fluffiest apologies to his loyal followers for the absence of posts during the past couple of weeks, and hopes you will all enjoy this video conclusion to his recent adventures with his dragon friend, which by agreement was premiered @staff and not here on @adventuresofalgy
And he sends his fluffiest thanks and hugs to Loll and Ben
p.s. Algy says be sure to turn the sound up for the video…
This is not a drill, repeat, this is not a drill—we are rolling out reblog controls across web and iOS, starting today.
How does it work?
When drafting a post, select the settings cog in the top right corner of your post editor. From here, you can choose one of two options.
“Anyone (on Tumblr)” means just that.
“No one” means that your post cannot be reblogged by anyone, ever.
Why?
Your wish is our command. Many of you have told us this feature would give you a welcome sense of safety. If you block someone after the post was made, don’t worry—they still can’t reblog it. This change gives you control over your own posts, and so will improve your posting experience. Ultimately, better posting means a better Tumblr. And finally, don’t worry, Android users. The feature will follow on your platform soon.
That’s all, folks. Happy reblogging!
Any questions? Drop us a line on @wiporSupport, and keep an eye out for the mobile rollout on@changes.
