Yeah, so, trying out the new “Doodle post” feature, and it is ridiculously buggy and not great, at least on mobile.
-If you switch back and forth between eraser and color, it often wouldn’t switch back to the color and just continue erasing. In order to color again, you have to repick your color.
-The color bar doesn’t always respond properly, and I needed to wave my stylus around to get it to “unlatch” from a color it got stuck on.
-***SUPER LAGGY. You end up doing anything super slowly, because there is a noticible delay between a stylus stroke and something actually showing up. THIS IS WHAT MAKES IT BAD FOR “DOODLES”. A doodle should be quick and easy, not a meticulous pain in the ass.
-Very limited pen sizes
-No eyedropper tool (so when a bug happens, good luck getting the color you were working with earlier).
I really see absolutely no reason to use this post type. There are free phone apps that are better for sketches and the sort, and computers have stuff like MS paint, which I prefer to this. It is not fun to doodle on, at least on mobile devices.
Edit: Tumblr, please, this has potential, but desperately needs work on it!
