all hail bingus, our lord and savior!

Comments.

On.

Main.

Say goodbye to the days of draft-only comments. Now you and your collaborators can leave comments right smack in the main doc. 🥵

Commenting on the main document works the same as in drafts.

Simply highlight the text you wish to comment on -> type, style, and post 💌

Comments can be carried over from the main doc to drafts (just select keep comments) 👇… as well as merged back into the main document from drafts 😱

We’re also using the opportunity to update the titles of collaborator roles to better reflect all the things Ellipsus can do now!

Can merge -> Document editor

Can edit -> Draft editor

Can comment —> Commenter (on both main & drafts)

Can view -> Viewer

To be clear: the permissions structure isn’t changing, just the names! You can get acquainted with the new role titles here: Collaboration in Ellipsus

One thing to keep in mind when working with comments between drafts & main doc:

When merging, a comment in the draft will overwrite a comment in main linked to the same portion of text. In other words, overlapping comments = merge conflicts, so try to keep your comments spaced out.

Keep the comments rolling 😎

And for the Plus users, we've got another snazzy update for you…

Introducing: Typewriter scrolling! 📜📜

Typewriter scrolling keeps the line your typing on in a fixed spot, while the scrolling view moves around it.

Typed lines will move up the page, rather than down, as your cursor stays level, for a super steady writing experience—just like a typewriter!

Extremely fucking stupid bc genuinely who cares. Walking sticks are literally for anyone. They help you when you walk around. Perfectly healthy and abled bodied people use them while hiking because they just work.

And what if it was just a fashion thing? It used to be trendy. It gives your outfit a different vibe. Experimenting with fashion is fun, there's literally zero things wrong with using a cane because you like the way it looks or how it makes you feel.

Every single person choosing to use a mobility aid in public normalises their use, and makes it less likely for me to get harassed out there. It just becomes a regular thing you see while out in public. And that's the exact thing ableist TERFs like Stock are actually against - Not even mentioning the absolutely obvious misogyny here.

tell me why this budgetless gay youtube series made for fun by a group of friends has the best editing and writing of anything i’ve watched in a year.
