LEAVE WHILE YOU STILL CAN
Nah, Tumblr's neat. I'd just advise staying away from the SJ side because it tends to be full of kooks and bigots (which is ironic)
You can search tags for things you like. For instance uh
Ok I don't know any of your interests, but I like anime. So I'd search for the tag "anime". Then, I'd click on a post I like, and look at that person's blog. If I like their blog, I follow them.
It's like clockwork once you start following people. Scary, addictive clockwork.

There's lots of VTers that have Tumblr.
If you need help you might want to talk to Emerald Dream or Harley Quinn.

LEAVE WHILE YOU STILL CAN
This. 1000x. I haven't spent so much time on a website since Neopets.
Yeah, I made one, didn't get it the appeal, then left. I frequent my other personality's tumblr so I'm actually for once not Syvelocin over there. I'll share if you want to follow her though.
It has ruined my little shipper heart.
Start following some people based on interests and reblog whatever suits your fancy. Some people have theme blogs. Some people have fandom blogs. Some people have two separate blogs like a fandom blog and an art blog. I just have a single fandom/personal/whatever blog.

That made me laugh, because I set one up months ago and then thought, 'okay now what the heck am I supposed to do with this?' and haven't been back to it since. Oh well, it's there if I ever need it.

o0o0o I saw my name, so I thought I'd comment. I haven't been on a website so long in my entire life, it consumes my life. Like, when I first had it like 4 years ago I didn't know what the fuck to do, now I'm a professional blogger. Which of course, isn't actually true. But yeah, I have 4 different blogs, all for different purposes. Oh, also you're allowed to share links as long as they are SFW, but alas I cannot share mine because at this very moment it's probably not SFW. Reblog, reblog, reblog whatever suits your fancy and it turns into a blog of your personality.

I have a tumblr account somewhere. Forgot the name and password. I still get emails from them but I don't know if I want to use it as I only posted a few things, one of them being a stupid picture of me with a fringe biting my fingernails :D

Trust me, it took me about a year after making an account to figure out what the hell I was going to do with it. (And hey, I now have just under 1,800 followers for it, so it's obviously working. :P) (Seriously though, you shouldn't make your sole aim to get more followers. I mean, they're nice, but you should please yourself with your blog first.)
Anyways, the advice of looking through tags of what you like and following blogs that you would want to reblog stuff from is definitely helpful. Personally, I just reblog whatever I want, mostly just humour stuff.

Umm, yeah it's pretty addicting. I've not been on it long, so I'm still getting used to it, but I love it.

No thank you. I never found tumblr to be entertaining.

It's really complicated and such to figure it out, I tried having one like two years ago after I got into the 1D fandom, but I failed epically and then I tried again when I got on VT, and I started getting the hang of it.

I love my Tumblr, and the site in general. I think it is great that you can shape your blog to fit your personality - which I think I have done pretty well. :) It is a little confusing at first, but I'm thankful that I was talked into it. It's part of what I do online every day, and I know a lot of people here on VT are on Tumblr too.

NEOPETS
I'm pretty sure that was literally like my entire childhood from 6-10. I did nothing else.

I absolutely adore tumblr! Basically you can create your own blog and post your own content by uploading it, or reflagging which is just reposting someone else's post. You can follow blogs specific to your interests, and find people with mutual interests that way. Really Tumblr can be ANYTHING because there are so many different options when it comes to following people and this or that because everyone's blog is unique and different. :) I hope you find it as enjoyable as i do!
