Quick PSA: If you share me a tumblr link that looks like username.tumblr.com, I can read it! however if instead its formatted tumblr.com/username then instead of actually being able to read your post, I get this highly annoying screen and can't actually read the post you actually sent

If you were just passing along a silly meme or something, maybe it's not worth the effort of double checking that everyone can actually see the post and that's fine whatever. But if you're sending it because you think that the contents are important enough that people off tumblr should be reading them? Maybe double check

@Satsuma A little detail question: I was under the impression that that kind of popover appeared after some scrolling, so if it's just a normal-sized meme or short text, the tumblr.com/username link works OK.
Am I wrong?

ETA: Remembered I could look at the thread on your instance and saw the additional info, thanks!

@Anke yeah tumblr seems very mysterious in their decisions on when to throw the popover—usually it comes up after i’ve scrolled a bit but sometimes it comes up immediately and i’ve never totally understood why but its frustrating
