#maybe if we bug them enough they'll actually roll this feature out

A lil PSA from your neighborhood ghost...

If you're accessing Tumblr on desktop, there's probably a number of extensions or available tools out there to improve your experience here. The one I'm most familiar with is Xkit Rewritten. It's great and it's got a ton of useful features you can toggle on and off that can make your Tumblr-ing a more pleasant experience. And it's handy when I'm mass queuing things and sorting through my drafts.

But what about mobile?

Mostly boned. But not entirely.

For those of you who don't know there's a feature here called Tumblr Labs which is located under your Account -> Settings. They're unofficial experimental features. Not tested, might break, yee be warned.

It's a bit hard to find, because it's tucked waaaay down there, but it's got some cool things that I'd actually recommend. (The subscription and favs tabs I like quite a bit, but play around with stuff you think is interesting.) This site was pushing this feature for a while and I knew Tumblr Labs was a thing because of that, but I haven't seen them talk about it in a hot minute so if you're new here, you might not be aware this is even exists. Anyway, the main lab feature I want to talk about is-

Queue 2.0.

God, Queue 2.0 is so much better than the normal Queue.

I schedule and queue almost all of my posts. Now, obviously you can run your blog however you want, maybe you prefer to freestyle, but if you want some more flexibility with running and managing your queue, reblogging, and scheduling posts. This is it right here.

You can queue things exactly when you want to! At specific intervals any time you want! When you know people are going to be on and are more likely to see stuff! It's fantastic!

I'm really hoping they just implement this officially at some point because it's just so much better. They recently added the shuffle and pause button to 1.0 from 2.0, so I'm not sure what the hold up is. ??? Plus, with them giving up the ghost on tumblr live, anything's possible.

Unfortunately, you can't access Queue 2.0 from mobile versions of Tumblr, there's literally not an option to toggle it on. However, know that if you set it up on desktop, Queue 2.0 still operates across devices on your account. Meaning you can set it and forget it. The UI for 2.0 won't be available on mobile, but your queue will still post at whatever schedule you have set it up with in 2.0. At least that's been my experience with the different OS that I use, (windows and android), but results may vary. IDK.

Anyway, this was just a little FYI/PSA from me. So if you didn't know, now you do. 🧡👻
