I've been unable to interact with my watch-list for several days now. I can view the new art, but I can't delete/fave it or even zoom in on it. The whole site also performs much worse now to boot.

I used to be able to group renders together to make a story line with some persuet to finish. I can't seem to be able too anymore.

Yeah, I'm a user experience designer, and design websites and software for a living, and I can't even understand how they came up with their Information Architecture and design choice, I doubt they did any user testing either!

I totally agree. I hadn't used it in a while and went to it a few months ago and couldn't figure out how to see the galleries of people I was following. It is literally that bad. I couldn't even figure out who I was following.

Yeah, they’ve royally fucked up the site at this point. Unless they do a patch to remedy that shit anytime in the near future, I’m definitely thinking about bailing on that hot mess.

Me: oh they changed. I'll have to che- WHY THO!? WHY DO THIS!?

It feels very disjointed; I wish they could have just smoothed out the programming for the original layout instead of giving us an entirely new one. I do like how notifications are less likely to glitch out, but messaging is a bit awkward.

Ugh, I hate the new design. As far as I can tell, most of the functionality is still intact, it’s all just harder to find. :/ But you can still post, you just gotta go to the “Posts” tab on your home page and dig around for the feature that lets you make a new post.

Welcome to the club xD

You and me both, brother (and judging by the comments on the official DA update post, pretty much every other user on the site xD)
