Oh, I might already have that! Give this post a look over, it might help. (I realize it doesn't cover how Tumblrites use tags in reblogs, but I'll get to that in a moment ✌)

I just covered a bit of this in the comments of the [community profile] newcomers version of this post, s I'll copy-paste here:

So it kinda depends on how you used reblogs on Tumblr. If you used them to keep track of things that interested you, then yeah, the Memories feature is pretty close. It's a site-specific bookmarking feature, and can be public. It predates tagging, and is what a lot of us used for organization back then, like keeping track of our own fics, etc.

If what you reblogged for was to spread the word, you can make a post with a link to what you want to share and include a quick excerpt. There's also technically a workaround, made by [personal profile] astolat (yes, that Astolat), [personal profile] ljwrites, and [personal profile] melannen. I haven't tried it myself, but I've heard that it can also work to reblog some non-Dreamwidth links, such as from AO3.

If what you reblogged for was the lols (such as memes, jokes, etc), I'd recommend [community profile] metaquotes! It wasn't particularly active last I was looking, but that's something we can change 👍

If what you reblogged for was to share your thoughts on a topic, we usually use comments for that here 😉 If it's something you'd put in the tags of a reblog (that isn't rude), feel free to leave it in a comment! Odds are very good that it would be well received.

I'll see about expanding that thing into its own tutorial post. Thank you for the requests, and I hope these answers helped a bit in the mean time!
