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.
Hey check this out

Look how convenient it is to have the side bar right here where it’s nice and good because I have all the tumblr functions jsut one click away so when I’m done getting caught up on tumblr I can just glance and see how many followers i have or what my activity is like. I can easily go to my liked posts and check out hat one I was saving for when I’m not on mobile. I can have quick access to my drafts and even log out if I want.
And what’s this?

A larger refresh button that’s easier to hit?
Man, it sure is nice to have all the functions be quick to access
Also two themes and the sidebar thing had to be edited a bit to be what it is now.
just testing the stylish styles.
So I have these styles

I know it’s by no far perfect but it is much better than it currently is without
