Tobias is doing well, he's still very timid but he's getting used to my hand being in the cage. He's also stopped looking for my thumb so it looks like it was just a phase. Instead he now keeps going to nip my fingertips, I think he's starting to learn that my fingers aren't treats though, and it doesn't scare him so much when I pull away

I read this but it slipped my mind as I just progressed into a whole story about my hamster, how rude and selfish of me, oops! I do that a lot!
Looks like he doesn't want the taste of thumbs anymore then! Did you manage to keep both your thumbs in tact? Haha! Maybe he finds your fingertips a bit more tasty, probably a midnight snacc. Sounds like taming is going your way now! It's awesome gaining the trust of tiny creatures, right? We don't deserve such lovely animals!
