They’re shattered into thousands of little note bubbles and everyone can only see a fraction. They can not be in dialogue anymore. We can not go through them all and see who wrote the funniest comment. We can not see who debunked the lie in the first post. Truly an excellent way to just break all communication on this site. >> >> according to my notes this is my most popular post right now, which is the only reason i can see how many notes it has: >> >> with @queeranarchism’s reblog and my own later reblogs i can count about 600 notes, which means that if this wasnt my most popular post i just would have no idea that 40% of the notes on this post even existed. > > Now if I want to go check if anyone is being transphobic or racist in the comments of those missing 40% of notes I will have to manually click through to every reblog to see if people replied to that, while before i could see it in the comments and replies and block them immediately. > > And you can only find - with effort - the replies in direct reblogs from your post. If someone reblogs a reblog, you can’t even find it at. > > Reblog graph still works and it visualizes the problem quite well in this case: that blue line is the original post, my reblog and yours. The yellow bubbles are the reblogs that I can see. > > There could be hilarious stuff there, or important corrections, or fash plotting to dox us. Can’t see.
