Some Days You Cannot Help But Pity Some People

here's your fucking feedback @staff

list of problems the removal of icons causes:

i cant see my friends

ruins the sense of community

can't tell at a glance who's online right now and what they're interested in

literally cannot tell without scrolling back up who put a post on my dash if it has a single addition attached to it. or like. 2 paragraphs in the op.

i cant click my own icon at the top of the dash to quickly view my own blog

can't tell who someone used to be if they change their username

squashes the margins between the menu and posts, making the whole dash feel more cramped

ruins the quick visual cue of how long each post is and where it ends when you're trying to scroll past ones youve seen before

people put a lot of creativity and individuality into icons, and now i never see them

makes people who primarily reblog instead of make their own posts all but completely disappear

list of problems solved by removing icons:

?????

who the fuck was asking for this

ive never in my life seen a website or app that has profile pics forcibly HIDE them, so i guess you did it you made the dash unique again in the worst way

here's some more feedback: maybe when you run an a/b test you should, idk, actually have a feedback form people can fill out about it somewhere

I wanna make propaganda for @the-ultimate-oc-tournament but unfortunately I can’t remember which OCs I submitted since I was indecisive. I’m pretty sure I submitted two and there’s like 4 options as to who they could be but finals have destroyed my memory.

how do i stop switching between ideas every 2 seconds

THE XENOBLADE X PORT IS REAL

fell asleep and had a dream i was fucking devastated to learn there was "no such thing as an ASCII maid. or a unicode maid." whatever the fuck that means

keep the legacy editor around for the love of god

Hello, Tumblr. 

If you joined us before November 2022 and predominantly post on web, you will be familiar with the two post editors—the legacy editor and the “new” web editor (formerly known as the “Beta editor”).

Beginning May 15, we’ll gradually be working to remove the legacy editor as an option for creating new posts. New posts created on web will be created in the new web editor. We hope to complete this change by July 15. 

This change only affects accounts created before November 2022. Newer accounts already default to the new web editor.

This will not affect posting on the apps because we switched to this new editor on the apps about four years ago. If you use the apps, you’ve been using the new editor all this time!

This will not affect what you can include in a post, only how you get there: You can still include all the different types of media in a post, only now, you’ll do that via the new web editor’s content blocks instead of selecting a post type from the post type bar at the top of your dash. So, if you’re halfway through a text post, and you decide that what this post really needs is your pet reptile, then click on the little red image icon in the post editor, select an image, and voilà. Lizard boy steals our hearts.

If you still prefer to post on web using the legacy editor, please keep reading because the rest of this post is for you.

How can you prepare for this change?

Once we have completed this update, you won’t be able to create posts using the legacy editor. You will be able to edit posts made using the legacy editor, at least for now. 

Start using the new web editor ahead of the switch. This will help you help us troubleshoot any issues you might encounter. It’ll also mean you’ll already know the ropes before the switch is final. 

Talk to us. Send us feedback. Especially if you’re switching from legacy to the new web editor. We want to hear about your experience: Are there any specific workflows or features in legacy that you want to see in the new editor?      

If you use a theme, make sure to check whether it supports posts made using the new web editor, and update it if that’s not the case. 

For those of you trimming reblogs: @rpschtuff has created an incredibly detailed master post that gets into the nitty gritty of that practice in the new web editor.

XKitters: XKit Rewritten was explicitly designed with the new web experience in mind. This means that you will need to use XKit Rewritten when creating posts in the new web editor.

That’s all for now. Remember, you can always get in touch with us. If it’s regarding the new web editor, then Support is the place for you. If it’s about something else, @wip is your guy.

I’ve just been wandering around and haven’t done any dungeons, but I’ll hide the rest of this so people can avoid spoilers.

-Gerudo Town still doesn’t allow men (except those Gorons from BotW, lame. Also do you guys think it’s actually “no boys allowed” (meaning nonbinary folks are allowed since they aren’t boys) or just “women only” (meaning no nonbinary folks allowed since they aren’t women)? 

-Paya my beloved. Glad Impa isn’t dead from what the NPCs have said.

-Purah is making it hard for me to figure out the timeline. I thought this was only a few years after BotW at most, but somehow she looks like a young adult despite being stuck looking like a kid in BotW.

-Chris Hackney Lizardman(?) being named Raaru is weird, gotta be some lore there.

-One of my friends told me about two things on the Great Plateau. The first was to go to the old man’s shack from BotW because there was a cool hat. Went there and ended up getting one shot by a buff Yiga guy because hey there’s still around. It seems like you do indeed get a hat after fighting the Yiga, but still. The second was a miniboss in the northwestern part of the plateau that he fought way too early (he was at four hearts and got some good weapons by killing it, he’s built different though don’t be like him). I was curious and went just to see what it was, no plan to actually fight it. TotK devs what have you done because that is just a straight up demon, like someone on the dev team was able to enter Hell itself, see some demons, and then put that in a video game. I reloaded a save because I knew I wouldn’t be able to outrun it.

-Another friend got some armor that looked a lot like Zant’s outfit, especially the headgear. Said he did it by doing chasm stuff.

-Mayor election sidequest is a thing? I think the fashion lady should leave and stop doing art.

I miss Gen 2 shiny Magcargo, the blue lava is so cool.

While I'm sticking to home models for the main opinion polls, if you have any pokemkn suggestions for bonus polls to use the 2d sprites for, drop the mon below ^^
