You know, I don’t think the sudden massive drop in notes that people have been seeing since November 8th is entirely due to the rollout of the “best first” dashboard feature. I think @staff also broke the activity pane.
A lot of folks have been seeing stuff like this on their blogs:
… and certainly, mine is no different. But let’s look at some specific numbers:
That represents like an 80% reduction in notes over a 72-hour span for me.
But check this out:
Check the timestamp. This post was clearly made during the span that the preceding graph covers - yet this one post has two and half times as many notes as my activity pane is claiming were received in total during that time period, and it’s not even the only trending post I’ve made since then.
Like, I’m sure that the “best first” feature has negatively affected huge numbers of people, there’s quo question about that, but it’s pretty clear that it’s also the case that the activity pane is busted.
Same:
According to the activity pane, in the entire last MONTH I’ve gotten ¾ the number of notes I got on this post I made a week ago. I think @unpretty mentioned seeing this too?
Oh my god, it’s actually even MORE broken.
I got another 700 notes on that post overnight, and according to the activity pane, the number of notes I’ve gotten went down by 56. And the “New followers” count is still 21 even though I gained 3.
@staff please learn to code.
