I’ve been in constant mourning since I joined this fandom

Please stooooppp😭😭

Then, if you go to the notes on the original post, it only shows the reblog from "two"

So the OP doesn't get to see how much engagement their post has unless people like/reblog from the original post. If someone adds any sort of comment, it splits them up like this. Artists, writers, crafters will see less engagement, nobody will know how far the reach of their post is or if someone says something nice about it. If you want OP to know, you'd have to make a conscious effort to reblog from the first post listed in the chain.

Not only is this going to be bad for general community things, but this could easily promote harassment. You won't see anything but the initial reblog from you if someone makes an addition, so there could be whole conversations that go completely missed.

if you dont mind, can you explain how it affects you as a creator?

please and thank you rommy

The new update only affect browser users, but it will affect the app too soon enough.

[Remember to keep complaining even weeks later]

But in my own words, the new update allocated notes to the latest reblog in the chain with a comment. So if I post a blurb, and someone with tons of followers reblogs with the comment "love this!!" Then any notes on that specific reblog will only apply to that reblog and I will not see them.

This makes it difficult to properly gauge interest in stuff. But it also means if someone reblogs my post with hate, I won't ever see it. Entire groups could be talking shit about me on my own post and I'd never know, but I'd still receive anon hate for it.
