work in progress — Is it possible to set the queue timing to "every...

Answer: Hey there, @automaticllamacycle!

So you’re right. There is currently no community-facing way that you can get your account back in the event it is deleted.

However, we are not too far away from having this technically feasible on our backend, and we don’t think it would take too much work to make it a reality. You’re right on this one—such a feature would be really nice to have, and we’re grateful you drew this to our attention.

Leave this with us—we will see what we can do. In the meantime, you can catch up with updates here at @wip or at @changes, should we have them.

Thanks for your question, and keep ’em coming. Happy weekend!

Answer: Hi there, @cinna-bunnie!

A little tease for y’all, because we just can’t help it—we hear you loud and clear. We are working on this, and we think you should stay tuned.

You’ll know more soon, and we like to think you might like what you see. Have a great day, and keep the questions coming, folks.

Hello there, @ilovery.

We love giving you the ability to personalize things! And the good news is you already can do all of what you want in our mobile apps.

1. You can change the fonts. When on a paragraph, long-press the Aa icon and select another font.
2. Changing text color is also available when composing a post using the mobile app. All you have to do is highlight some text, and color pickers appear.
3. Color palettes are available on Android and iOS, too! Go to [Snowman] > ⚙️ > General Settings > Color Palette.

You can find a complete guide to using and formatting text in our Help Center guide.

We hope this helps, and thanks for your question. Keep them coming, folks.

Hey there, @charmedslayer.

We love this idea, too, and we would love to get to work on it someday. However, our hypothetical plate is pretty full right now, so while we can’t make any promises, please know that we’ve made a note of it. On our hypothetical wish list.

So we one day hope to hypothetically push the hypothetical peas to the side of our (you get the idea…) plate and make a little room for this project. In the meantime, keep an eye on @changes for updates.

Thanks for your question. It’s great feedback!

Hello, @abigailpents!

We think that’s a great idea, and we’d love to do it. However, we’re afraid we’re focusing on improving other areas of the platform first, and don’t quite have the time or resources at the moment. We think this is a neat idea, however, and would advise you keep watch on @changes in the meantime.

Thanks for your question, and have a great day!

Love,

Hey there @exocomets!

This is an important question, and we couldn’t agree with you more, so we sent the crabs a letter in a bottle. They responded and said they’d love to come back, but they’re not sure when—they are enjoying their time on the island a lot!

This is understandably a popular question. Thanks also to @astrophysiciann for getting in touch—and never say never, people.

Hello there, @writethewrongs.

We are looking at qualitative feedback like you’ve provided and quantitative feedback: like how many people have turned off the “Shorten long posts” dashboard setting, or if people are engaging more often with posts. We have considered allowing posts to expand in-place in apps as we do on web. But we are also considering making further improvements to the single-post view on mobile. Know we’ll continue to improve!

Right now, however, a project such as this would require a lot of time and work as it is not easy to expand in-place on mobile apps. As it is, it’s unlikely we will be able to implement this feature soon. 

Thanks for your suggestion, and we recommend you keep an eye on @changes for any updates.

Thanks for your question.

Why hello, @tinymacaroni

Great news! Not only can you do this, but it is very straightforward.

On Android only, you can simply disable “Upload” in the Notifications menu in your phone settings, as displayed in the video below. This will stop notifications whenever you post, reblogs, etc.

On iOS, the system Notifications setting disables the whole notifications for a dedicated app. Or, to be more specific, you need to enable/disable the available notification settings in the Tumblr application Settings.

We hope this helps, and thanks, as always, for your feedback. And keep those questions rollin’!

Best,

—Adam and Omar (Tumblr Engineering)

Hello there, @butterfingerrs.

Thanks for this! We’re planning on adding some more and will add omni to the list!

Cheers,

Hello, @vevakan783.

Maybe we do, maybe we don’t. There’s not a whole lot we can say about this right now, apart from, perhaps, keep an eye on your dashboard and wait and see.

Thanks also to @galatoma for a similar question.

Love,
