Thank you so much, andrew (Our Supreme Lord and Overseer)!! Altho I've been getting a lot of Error 500's now

This is amazing!! Thank you, andrew (Our Supreme Lord and Overseer)! I literally read dark theme and I was just like "Where? Where is it!" I found it, and I am loving it. That moment when you think this site can't get any better, then andrew (Our Supreme Lord and Overseer) drops a huge update and proves you wrong.

Although, like @/Icefire said, I am getting some Error 500's.

Also, is there a way to disable people from following me but still keep my profile public?

Hmm, I don't have an iPad to test dark mode out on but I'll figure something out.

Working on the Error 500s right now. Good news is they aren't caused by any bugs, so if you refresh they should immediately go away. We just have a lot of people coming back to the site right now and I need to scale servers and the database back up to handle them all. A good problem to have. :)

Also, it's always so nice to stay up late putting out a big release and then wake up to tons of comments about it in the morning. Thanks, everyone. :)

Thank you, andrew (Our Supreme Lord and Overseer)!

this is super exciting! i’m about to make great use of the timelines feature!

(also, quick question, when you block a user are they notified of it? I don’t have anyone to block I’m just curious how it’ll work)

@Cocoa-Nut They're not notified of it, and your block button then turns into an unblock button in case you want to reverse it. When they're blocked, any shares from them in the stream will be completely hidden, and any comments by them on the forums will also be hidden with an almost-imperceptible "1 hidden message" line that's there if you're like, "wait, who are these people responding to?" but hard to see unless you're looking for it.

It should also prevent them from commenting on your page shares, but I'm not 100% sure that got finished by the time the release went live, so I'll make sure it goes into tonight's follow-up "fix-all-the-bugs-everyone-reports" release if it's not already there. :)

One thing I noticed is that blocked user's messages still show up in PMs (old ones, I'm unsure of how a current one would appear). It would be nice if they were blocked there too, but I get if that's not possible.

I can’t find the feedback page for the timeline, is there anywhere else we can find it?

@StevenUniversefangirl Once you've dismissed the message at the top of the editor page, you can also find it as the last link at the bottom of the Help Center (under My Account in the sidebar), but it's also here if you want a direct link. :)

Thank you

Oh this is great! <3 I've only taken a quick look around but so far all the updates look fantastic, and I love the dark theme!

You know what would be really cool? A "like" or "thumbs-up" button. For when you don't have anything to say about someone's character on the stream but you want them to know you like it

^^^ Yes!

THANK YOU SO MUCH andrew (Our Supreme Lord and Overseer)!!!

I can't access the "Around the World" portion of the stream; it just gives an error 500

@Icefire Looks like there was a bug there. Pushing up a fix right now that'll get it working again. :)

:) thanks andrew (Our Supreme Lord and Overseer)!

Hey andrew (Our Supreme Lord and Overseer), if you block someone will they still be able to follow you?

@PatienceKills Ah, currently yes, but they won't see any of your content in streams/threads anyway. I'll prevent following altogether in tomorrow's release though.

andrew (Our Supreme Lord and Overseer) you are a literal god
