my friend just told me that there's a secret second dashboard that solely contains posts from people you've turned on post notifications for, and when i click the link in the messages it opens it within the tumblr app, so the tumblr app also has a secret second dashboard for post notification blogs, and the only way to access it is to open the link for it within the app.

i literally love tumblr

i have a private pinned post that just has a link to this dashboard on it, it's great. two dashboards for life

wow! i was really hoping someone would organically reverse-engineer this and find that dash.

here are a few other "secret" dashboards:

these are all just taking existing feeds of content and putting them in a dashboard-like format... the "Stuff for you" tab/feed is the same idea.

Australia, I'm so proud of you. I've loved this country since I first visited 13 years ago, and I can't believe I got to be here for your best World Cup run ever (even if I had to watch it from the roof of the Sydney Convention Center 😆). I was beside myself excited when they awarded the 2023 World Cup to Australia/New Zealand, and so thrilled to come back here. Devastating that the @USWNT didn't make it like we thought they would, but it was a delight seeing the Matildas have success like that at home. Cheers to you! 🇦🇺🇳🇿⚽🏟️🥅🏆

what i need level 1s to understand is that when i say "i can't do this because of my autism", im not saying "all autistic people can't do this", i'm not saying "doing this is hard and i don't want to", and i'm (usually) not saying "people have told me i can't do this".

what i'm saying is that i'm aware of the ways my autism limits me personally, and i've realized that successfully doing the thing is not a realistic or achievable goal for me. sometimes i would love to do the thing. sometimes everyone in my life believes i can do it, but i've realized i can't. and i'm very well aware that not all autistic people are like me, and many can do the thing.

i need level 1s to comprehend the fact that not every autistic person has high intelligence and independence. it's cool if you do and nowhere did i ever say no autistic person is like that, but you need to acknowledge that some autistics are genuinely not as smart or independent as you are, and that no amount of encouragement or motivation will change that.

Booing that call along with everyone in the stadium

Currently not having fun. Penalty kick was not the vibe.

Is it possible for both teams to win this? Just give them the medals please 💀

I hope Foord and Asllani are ok. That was some collision.

I'm not strong enough for any penalties. Still haven't recovered actually

Don’t miss a thing! New unread activity notifications

We’re making some changes to the activity view on web — starting with unread notifications that will be highlighted blue, as well as multi-colored labels to identify those who you’re closest with.

Why are we doing this?

You may have previously noticed that some activity items were highlighted, and some weren’t. What you may not know is why this was, and you’re not alone.

The previous, light blue highlighting indicated items that were from people you follow. Obvious, right? Well, no, not really. There are design patterns in interfaces that have become standardized from widespread usage to mean a certain thing. Highlighting notifications light blue is one of those that have come to mean “unseen” or “unread.” Which is what it will now mean here, too.

How do I know which are from people I follow?

Good news! We now have colorful labels to identify activity from people you follow. On top of that, we’ve created a new label called “Mutuals” to show people you follow and who follow you back so that you can keep track of those closest to you.

Before and after

More to come

This is the first of several improvements we are making to activity and notifications—so stay tuned for further updates as they come!

Feedback?

Why not let us know what you think in the replies? We’d love to hear from you.
