Y'know what I love the most about Patreon?

I mean, aside from:
- Being told about all the great new video features I'm not allowed to use because I draw the vaginas
- Being hidden from search because I draw the vaginas
- The awkward posting system, including but not limited to the weird ass click and drag marker you have to use to mark where the paid access starts for your text, and the fact that tagging doesn't auto-complete with down-arrow (because it instead scrolls down very slightly on a section of the site that doesn't even have a motherfucking scroll bar)
- Tthe constantly changing UI that gets altered for no reason other than to alter it
- The notifications panel that tells you someone has made a comment on your posts, but doesn't actually SHOW YOU THE COMMENT they made
- The fact that it autosaves the draft RIGHT before I click the publish button, so it doesn't actually click the publish button because it's autosaving and you can't publish while it's autosaving
- The fact that accessing your private messages requires two clicks because when you first enter the PM page it starts you on the "Community" tab, which is like.. Isn't that what the FRONT FUCKING PAGE IS FOR!?

... Anyway, my favorite new feature is the fact that comments on posts are now sorted OLDEST FIRST, which means in order to read any comments (y'know, the ones you can't read on the notifications page where it tells you you have new comments) beyond the first two, I have to CLICK TO EXPAND on every single post, because GOD knows being able to read the comments people leave you should be the MOST awkward part of a site where the MAIN TWO FEATURES are "I post things" and "You comment on things".

This has been a short rambling rant from Feretta, have a great night <3 And than you all for being here, I literally wouldn't be able to do what I do without you guys.

As nothing more than an observer that doesn't post, I absolutely agree with this rant and apologize that this will be what you see first every time you look for a new comment. Trust me, you never get used to it. Lol

This update is ass, it ruined the mobile app even more!

That sucks, I love your art and the fact that you continue to persevere and created such a wonderful world makes me super happy 😄

As I said years ago (when they destroy normal home page and require me to always click on notification tab to watch actually who post sum new shit and implement webp shit later) - they fired all their UI/UX specialists and replaced them with the great nothing (or maybe AI from 2018, even crappiest&free modern LLM will generate more userfriendly design than patreon have now)

I clicked on this post, wondered "There's a new UI update? I haven't seen it yet" and immediately got introduced to it. Patreon seems janky to use as a user, I can't imagine what its like as a creator. Keep up with your amazing art though! I know I most likely would follow you if you switched platforms, if you ever chose to

100% with you. Also just commenting so you have to look for this comment again.

This site sucks for many reasons, you have my sympathy

Excellent rant there Feretta. You should do it more often :D

Jeff Allison

I don't know if it is on the artist's page, but I noticed a little up-down arrow set on the comment section for this post that seems to put the newest comments at the top. IHTH

I wonder if some of this is downstream of some people thinking they need to change Something (tm) to seem like they're doing something. Also I JUST saw this, but there's two little arrows above the comment bar that switch between Top and Newest, so I wonder if toggling that might help you

Feretta

Listen here you little shit.. :p

Feretta

That just makes it worse, because yeah, there's no such thing for me on my dashboard. :p

Feretta

The incredible part is that there is, in fact, NOT two little arrows above the comment bar on the creator side of things.

pj wolf

good lord

Combak

It could be worse!

Feretta I really hope you will start making some great animation I really want you to make a full story of tale of tails
