Obligatory Welcome Guide For Redditors

obligatory welcome guide for redditors

A lot of the guides I've seen don't actually seem to understand how reddit works in comparison to tumblr so

your blog is basically your own small subreddit. some people curate this heavily to fit a theme, like a sub, most people don't

reblogs are culturally equivilant to upvotes but functionally equvilant to crossposting

there is an algorithm. it sucks and nobody uses it. turn it off in settings. everything is generally chronological

likes are functionally equivilant to saving a post

you've probably already seen this but change your icon and put something in your bio or people WILL assume you're a bot. personal info not required

generally, anything you would put as a comment on a thread should go in the tags or the replies of a post. only add comments in reblogs if you want it to become part of the base post

tags are mostly equivilant to flairs, used for organization and commentary

your dashboard is an aggregation of everyone you follow

there is an r/all equivilant(trending page) but it sucks and nobody uses it

our search also sucks. your best bet is using tumblr.com/tagged/[TAG] and not /search

there are no mods

by extension, reporting something doesn't put it in front of the mods, it sends it to staff, who may or may not do anything(usually they don't)

there is no karma, there are no karma limits. anyone can reblog anything, comment/reply to anything, or post in any tag

"reposting"(reblogging) old content doesn't matter. people can and will reblog the same post multiple times, including in a row

CAVEAT. reposting someones art(NOT reblogging, making a new post) is a dick move. i know this is commonplace on fandom subs but its not necessary here. everything you post should be [OC] unless you are reblogging. or posting shitty memes

we have our own sitelore, you'll pick it up

(though im not opposed to bringing some over from reddit)

our app also sucks. we do not have third party apps and any that claim to be are scams. sorry

for desktop, most people use the XKit Rewritten extension for QoL improvements and to revert shitty aesthetic updates, much like old.reddit

we have no idea where the porn rules are at either. add a mature content flag to anything you'd get fired for looking at at work, that's about it

finally, from the bottom of my heart, fuck u/spez

PLA - Shiny Legends Au

(I know arceus is a mythical but shhhhh) This au has been in my mind for a few days now and since I’ve finished this picture (and I have more planned) I can get into it.

So in this au, when Akari and Ingo got sent to Hisui, they woke up as shiny legendary (and mythical) Pokémon. Here’s some more info:

Akari

Akari is a shiny Arceus (it’s unrelated to the choice, but I like how similar Akari and Arceus sound)

She appears the same way she did before, just as an arceus instead of a human

Professor Laventon, after figuring out she wouldn’t attack him, takes her back to Jubilife

Despite being an arceus, she was given the same task of seeking out all Pokémon, so she helps out with Survey Corps

Rei is her chosen human to drag around on dangerous adventures to gather information on Pokémon (since she won’t be able to write in a Pokédex until she gets a better hold on psychic)

Ingo

Ingo is a shiny Reshiram, and when he’s in overdrive his fire is hot pink/purple

When he first arrived in Hisui, he had no memory. He was found by Lady Sneasler, who took him to the Pearl Clan

Irida is the first human to meet him and needless to say she was very surprised when Lady Sneasler turned up with a whole legendary dragon Pokémon

They didn’t know what he was so he wrote his name in the dirt and they called him that from then on

Some time later, he receives the title Lord Ingo and gets his own Warden

His coat is in fairly good condition, since most Pokémon won’t approach the giant dragon and those who do are swiftly taken care of

Also the Pearl Clan will mend his coat whenever it gets damaged

pick it up

I still really like Frog Wild. I think it's a neat episode.

But what if Meta Knight

Ziggy and Zaggy!
