So. FUN FACT
so. FUN FACT
tumblr is apparently rolling out a beta for a new post editor that essentially makes it so there are no longer post “types” (text post, audio post, photo post, etc.), and instead all types of content are better integrated into a single post. pretty neat, right?
…until you read the fine print.
The maximum number of total content blocks allowed in a single post is 250.
i emailed support and asked whether each paragraph counts as a content block. i received this reply:
SO. each paragraph counts as a content block, and i’m only allowed 250 content blocks in one post. the solution provided was to reformat my fics by using shift+enter after every paragraph instead of simply enter. which is already unnecessarily annoying in of itself, but then you come to the second hurdle:
The maximum character length of a single text block is 4096 characters.
so–what?? besides spending my time writing thousands upon thousands of words, i’m expected to copy-paste it and then reformat everything, counting every single one of those words to make sure they fit within the restrictions? or i’m supposed to chop my fics up into multiple parts, even when i don’t want to? how exactly are writers supposed to write on this platform?? as you all know, my style tends to run pretty dialogue-heavy, so i start new paragraphs (and, thus, content blocks!!!) pretty damn often. i did a quick check, and let it snow, at almost 19k, is 550 paragraphs. with this new system, i would be forced to upload it in three (3!!!!!) posts! even my shortest chapter of ego, at 8.8k, is 350 paragraphs, and i’d have to split it in two.
this is honestly a formatting nightmare as a writer, and this is a decision that is liable to drive content creators away from the site and change fandom culture as a whole.
please. if you enjoy reading content on this site and want to continue enjoying content on this site, please don’t let tumblr make things harder for writers! since the tumblr team is supposedly eager to hear what everyone thinks, it would really help if you could message support and share your concern about the issue–maybe we can stop this disaster before it starts.

BNHA Rarepair Horror Fest #4!
This event was organized by: @bnhararepairhub
Rarepair: Hitoshi Shinsou x Ochaco Uraraka
Prompt/Title: Falling
Shinsou didn’t know Uraraka very well, but he always liked her quirk because it reminded him of a cat’s paw.
“Can I hold your hand?”
It was a very intimate question that flustered him.
Uraraka stayed silent for a moment before smiling wryly, “sure!”
She held out her hand for Shinso to hold, to which he did. “They’re so cute…” he mused. He traced his fingers along her hand, then held it.
Without warning, her quirk activated, and he felt lighter by the second.
“Oops! Sorry! My quirk activated!”
Shinsou floated higher and higher, “can you deactivate it please?!”
There was no immediate response, as if Uraraka was hesitating. “It’s- it’s not working!” She screamed. “I’m gonna call a for help!”
She left him floating. Shinsou became light headed - he could see the whole city. He got so high that the clouds were getting larger as seconds ticked by.
Then, out of nowhere, everything stopped, and his heart fell.
She stopped her quirk.
At an alarming rate, he was gaining more and more speed. The wind whistled in his ears. His eyes were forced open and his body was sprawled out by the sheer speed.
The city was getting closer and closer.
And then…
And then…!
“Jeez… that sounds terrifying!”
“It was…”
Shinsou looked at his girlfriend, who stared at him with wide eyes after he told her about his nightmare.
“Does that mean we can’t hold hands anymore?” She asked, innocently.
“Of course we can.” He showed his genuineness by reaching for her hand, “just promise you won’t float me to the sun, okay?”
