Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Whoah. They've done a thing where they've interpreted my "author:" and "kink:" tags to be categorisation, and now I have a "has author" and "has kink" tags added to the applicable entries.

"Has author" not so interesting. "Has kink"? Oh, halloo, timesaver.

I don't need stacks: I had bundles. Where are all my tags? Where is the network/follow page? Where are my subscriptions?

Why are there pictures of cats and badgers? Why can I only see ten links per page?

I am NOT HAPPY.

You don't have tags? I still have tags. I just have extra tags. And I like my new tags, because they do more than bundles. Not sure what happened to bundles, though. That was a lot of org work I'm not intending to redo.

Never had subscriptions, but my follow page is still there. Ten links per page is rude. I was looking at 10 times as many.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I seem to have three tags which is ...not right.

I had a lot more tags than they're showing me, and they're not in order. I had my tags bundled, and that's gone.

They list the people I follow, but there's no page that shows me all their links together, like an LJ flist. What use is a follow page if I can't see what they're linking to?

And subscriptions was how I tracked new apocafic and whether anyone was linking to my stuff.

I'm quite pissed off.

I'm assuming that their FAQ isn't helping you any? I think it was a silly idea to have a release with that many to dos, but I don't feel that the sky is falling.

And does your inbox not work?

There's nothing new in my inbox.

And half my tags are missing.

If I click on "gen" I get... ten links. This is not good.

I never used my following, so I have no idea what's normally in there. There is stuff now, though.

Did you email them to report the bugs?

No, I'll have to wait until I get home to do that. It's too hard to do that sort of thing from my phone.
