This
article is for you if you've ever wished to block tags from showing up in
your Tumblr feed.
We'll
walk you through each step of how to block tags on Tumblr.
1. Use Tumblr Filtering
The
simplest way to block tags on Tumblr is to use its built-in Filtering system.
From
here, you can easily add and remove specific tags that you want to blacklist
from Tumblr so that posts tagged with those hashtags don’t appear on your feed.
Individuals who publish content on Tumblr have the option of adding useful tags or coming up with new ones to fit trending searches.
However,
Tumblr may push out content connected to tags that you never wanted to see in
the first place into your dashboard feed if you regularly follow any blogs.
Tumblr just introduced a way to filter content to avoid this from becoming an issue.
When you
filter a tag, every post that includes that tag is automatically blocked, even
if additional tags have been added.
On your dashboard, though, you can still see placeholders for blocked posts, so they aren't necessarily invisible.
Just tap
or click the View Post button to open the post in the dashboard sidebar if you
want to see it.
Tumblr
offers the ability to block tags on the desktop, as well as through its mobile
apps for both iOS and Android.
You don't need to repeat your actions on different platforms because your changes sync over.

plugin is only accessible to desktop users of Firefox and Google Chrome is its
only drawback.
