How to Avoid Reblog Bait on Tumblr (as someone who is distressed by it)

(cw: discussion of reblog bait, demonstrative use of compulsive language)

-

Reblog bait is Tumblr's main form of share-bait, which is content online that pressures users into sharing post content to avoid harm to themselves, to avoid harm to those they care about, or to avoid being seen as a bad person.

Post content to filter out or be aware of if you are also distressed by reblog bait include but are not limited to:

reblogs > likes

follows > likes

I know you see this

keep reblogging

please reblog

please share

must reblog

obligated to reblog

sample size

reblog if

obligated to reblog

ignore for

Tumblr posts will often tag reblog bait with the tag "#reblog bait" or similar tags like "#tw reblog bait", "cw reblog bait", "reblog bait tw", and more.

Reblog bait content is unfortunately most common on awareness posts, which often have important information to share but unfortunately end up inaccessible to those distressed by reblog bait due to the moral pressures put onto these users to avoid being a bad person.

With this, and especially as someone who's all too familiar with what it's like to feel pressured by share-bait (which I've had to manage since my first exposure to share-bait when I was 12 years old), I would say these messages to those who are also affected by share-bait:

You are not a bad person for not sharing reblog bait.

You will not get harmed in any way for not sharing reblog bait, nor will anyone you care about get harmed either.

You do not have to share online posts of any kind if you do not want to, this post included.

I hope that this post can help users with this because I know that a post like this would have helped me if I came across it when I first started using Tumblr.

reblog not for a “bigger sample size” but because polls like this are a fun way to help people reinforce their own self-concept and passing it along so that other people can also have the opportunity to strengthen their sense of self by pressing a button is a cool and nice thing to do

#qwopping thru life #polls #eyesight #glasses #vision #reblog bait #reblog game #just in case people have only one of those things tagged #also I’m not sure if I need to do anything to make this poll more accessible to people with screen readers
