I blame all of this on Null being exposed to the gas stations that play ads for the first time.
 
What's the point dear feeder? Why is this a forum if I can't properly keep tabs on threads beyond stickers? Just eliminate stickers entirely at this point if you're going to freeze the literal only useful thing about em that autists like us use.

I was reminded of the Waukesha Christmas parade attack thread that way, re-browsing I snagged a copy of the Archive Kiwi.

I stopped using reactions received to navigate except for when I want to easily go back to a thread because the search function is not great and TIL there's a "Your Content".

I more often navigate using What's New / New Posts feed but that is also broken probably 35% of the time or more.
 
Null being a total aspie about stickers and sticker-lovers being total aspies about stickers gave me a good laugh, thanks OP.

For anybody needing help, my secret tech to navigating this website is to use my mouse's integrated left button and scroll wheel. In the case of tracking threads I try this revolutionary mentalization technique called "fucking remembering it".

How are we supposed to do it? Reactions Received is the objectively best way to navigate the website. You can see which threads are popping off in real time without being bothered by notifications when you aren't interested, and you have a really convenient way to pop back in at the point you left off, and then when you lose interest and stop posting in it the reactions die down a day or two later. Sometimes you'll even get reminded of a really funny thread you liked from four years ago.

Exactly, and I can't remember the exact details but I remember something explaining that post rating is a way of community policing, to let someone know of low-quality posts without alerting the mods for every mouthbreather in the thread while maintaining post quality. Jannies can't clean up everyones' messes. Don't use it instead of the Report button, but it has a purpose.

Remember when Null explicitly said we could use the page he just nuked to navigate the site?

I member.

Exactly, that's what I remember from last year. Use Reactions Received; it was a reasonable compromise to keep the dopamine addicts down. A "compromise" then yanking out the rug a few years later on the compromise part is what tyrants and asshole politicians do.

Seeing your post suddenly inspired me to go on ChatGPT and fuck around with it by making it shit out userscripts to give this site "a new look".

Here's one that is supposed to replicate the look of Kiwi Farms from 2014.

Here's another that gives Kiwi Farms "A new look".

A simple one that changes all the text to orange.

Finally, a userscript that was supposed to change all text to say "You're gae". It kinda broke the site though.

Thanks for watching my thread.
 
I used the reactions page to also help me remember what posts I made without having to use a lot of bookmarks like I have to now since I have ADHD and won't remember trivial things, now I have to scroll more and navigate obtusely if I want to go back to my older posts. Some negrates helped me find stuff from September 2024 because thats the last time someone gave me a reaction like dislike. It might be retarded to you but its very useful for me.
 
@Null, if the user quoted or @'d in my post, reacts to my post (I dunno how it could be done for profile posts) I want a notification.

Is that reasonable, or am I too low IQ and retarded to use a forum.
