Hey i just wanted to let you know mobile didnt get that update so things are still readable if you need/ want to temporarily switch to that while we wait for someone to (hopefully) fix it
I know. its just extremely frustrating that desktop has become less functional than mobile
oh boo hoo, youre illiterate. If you dont like the new layout then go somewhere else
I am extremely dyslexic. I CANNOT read uninterrupted blocks of text. its been fairly manageable over the years due to the reblogs breaking the posts up into easy to parse chunks for the most part as well as make it clear as to who was saying what. My main conniption with the new style is that it does not break the post up nor tell who said what.
Lets look like an old iconic post shall we?
There is no indication of which person is saying what or even how many people are involved in this chain. this removes all incentive to even bother trying to read or figure out whats going on. Its not a matter of literacy, its a matter of functionality.
I think the most egregious thing about the dashboard update is that it removes any incentive to read at all. Theres no breaks. every text is now a huge block of text that has no indication of when one persons post ends and someones reblog response begins. Let alone no way to see WHO posted and reblogged it or even if the person on the dash is the one leaving a comment.
while you can still send in asks for the story, this arc’s finale had it’s asks sent through picarto’s message system. there’s a big backlog of sketches that cover this arc, but i don’t mind adding new asks if requested (i understand not everyone could be there for a 6+ hour livestream lmao)
