The only thing I really have to say about AO3's latest contretemps is: I toldyou so~
When a platform is so fucked up that the only way to make it run is to take out the navigation, then it's time to think real hard about who's been driving development.
... That's a really stupid little response. Honestly, folks, take two minutes and change the message. Yay! Six months! {rolls eyes}
If you want one sooner, I do actually have an invite left that they haven't taken away. I don't know what will happen after I send it - they might actually be blocking the ones we send personally. But worth a shot, if you want.
Honestly, it's fine, this encourages me to try to convince them to change their invite system, because I'd have been okay with a month or two wait considering how long the queue is, but 6 months is absolutely ridiculous and something there needs to change.
^_^ "Here, see, I was *almost* a potential consumer, but your shitty policies have turned me off. Change, damnit!"
When I was poking around at the invites, I noticed they now have over 19,000 people on the list. Six months just grew to seven. Pretty soon, they'll be at a year!
