Hi I just started my first studyblr, and I feel a bit confused. How do become more apart of the community? I've just reblogged things and followed some people, but no one has noticed me yet.
Hello, love!! Firstly, thank you for asking me ^^ The entire studyblr portion of tumblr is already a very welcoming community in general! I completely agree that it can be intimidating to talk to blogs, especially ones that you respect a lot, but here’s the general idea:
If you’re looking to simply find friends, I’d definitely recommend you approach them and talk to them. Some people like posting original content, but I wholeheartedly agree that it’s not for everyone; instead, try approaching some of your favorite blogs and making friends with them! You can also look for networks and promos to join!
I was so intimidated by my favorite blogs when I first started this blog not a couple weeks ago, but I quickly realized that they’re just people. We’re all students sharing pictures of libraries and history notes on a Thursday evening. We’re legitimate nerds who get excited over tutorial links and calendar printables, if you truly think about it. What is there to be scared about? Most of us are 14-22 years of age and we’re all just trying to keep organized and find our place in the world.
The best way to involve yourself is to initially decide what kind of content you want to provide to the community. Do you want to be a reblogger, a masterpost-guru, a historian photographing your academic endeavors, or simply a friend to anyone in need of one? You can be all of them or none of them, and at the end of the day it’s your choice ^^ I suggest talking to blogs, but really, you can approach this community however you like, love~
