I look forward to discovering how this is STILL worse than the one I started with later on today.
At any rate: having had another seriously low-productivity day yesterday, I have resolved to play no Fallout and write no blogs until Sunlight has at least 20000 words, and I really ought to shoot for at least 21-22K today.
So don’t tell anyone about this post. It’s our secret.
Leave encouragement in comments. Or, y’know, whatever.
Thanks for sharing your secret with me. I won’t tell anyone else, promise.

Well, they finally got the stats interface to stop completely sucking, so it was time to go back to screwing around with the editor.

I don’t like how linking be just good hard, my own posts aren’t proposed anymore. And putting a caption on a photo is not fun either (I don’t want the caption to be a back link).

I’m glad to see that I am not the only one disturbed by the new editor.

I’ll write a more comprehensive post later just to give it a run-through; I’m mostly just pointlessly mocking right now. I’m 300 words short of goal, but just finished a section, so I don’t know if that means I can post/shower/play video games yet.

I’m still using the old editor because I’m smart like that.

I’m still using the old editor, too, but things have changed anyway in the last few months (not sure exactly when, because I was away from the internet for a couple months), and I don’t like it at all.

What’s different? I haven’t noticed anything, but I’m not very observant until something actually makes my life harder. Then I yell.

I suspect they’re doing a slow roll out. I have trouble believing you wouldn’t notice the differences immediately.

And for the record I’m only not answering the question because I’m on my phone. I need to take a closer look at it later.

I can’t change the font color anymore (it’s stuck as a sort of medium grey, which is a bit difficult to read), and I can’t justify the right-hand margins. Those are just the things I’ve noticed so far; I’m sure there’s more.

If you’re in the new-new hotness, there are three horizontal dots on the right side of the editing icons. Clicking that rotates them to vertical and brings up “advanced” editing, which includes text color.

I’m still using the old editor. I loathe the new one. ☺ I mean that in the nicest possible way… which I suppose isn’t nice at all… 😀

Clever plan, bribing yourself with Fallout to increase writing productivity.
