Yeah, even having sorted my browser extension issues, I still can’t reply to posts. It pops up, I type, I hit enter, it shows a blank space. It’s possible it’s still sending to the person, I wouldn’t know, because it’s not like I’d be notified if they replied to the reply, but in at least one case I think the thing i was trying to tell the person would have resulted in an action I would be able to see, if they’d gotten the message. So–
And I have the same issue everyone else has, where if you scroll back too far your dashboard just stops. I tried adding numbers after, but I had endless scroll on, so I have no idea what number to start with, and I haven’t managed to see anything earlier than where it stopped no matter how many numbers I put on.
So… I’m not sure what that feature could be for, @staff. Are you telling us that we should spend less time on here? We’re not actually supposed to be looking at our dashboards beyond a casual scroll to see the literally-latest things.
I really don’t know what they think we do with this site.
And I painstakingly sifted through my mentions, all of which were simple reblogs of an earlier post, until I did in fact find that I had been tagged in something quite sweet by @vulgarweed and was very moved. It’s the sort of thing that I would actually like to get a notification of a mention in. (Not that I wasn’t pleased to be mentioned in the reblogged post, because I was, and it was relevant! but to get every reblog note as a new notification was a bit confusing!)
So, in short, I know the replies thing is apparently only me because usually as I’m trying to reply I can see that other people have done so. But everything else is universal and I just don’t know what they’re hoping to accomplish with all of this. It seems reasonable that they’re trying to influence our behavior but I have a sinking feeling that’s not it at all, they’re just that incompetent.
Never ascribe to a sinister conspiracy what can be explained by simple incompetence.
