Say goodbye to the days of draft-only comments. Now you and your collaborators can leave comments right smack in the main doc. 🥵
Commenting on the main document works the same as in drafts.
Simply highlight the text you wish to comment on -> type, style, and post 💌
Comments can be carried over from the main doc to drafts (just select keep comments) 👇… as well as merged back into the main document from drafts 😱
We’re also using the opportunity to update the titles of collaborator roles to better reflect all the things Ellipsus can do now!
Can merge -> Document editor
Can edit -> Draft editor
Can comment —> Commenter (on both main & drafts)
Can view -> Viewer
To be clear: the permissions structure isn’t changing, just the names! You can get acquainted with the new role titles here: Collaboration in Ellipsus
One thing to keep in mind when working with comments between drafts & main doc:
When merging, a comment in the draft will overwrite a comment in main linked to the same portion of text. In other words, overlapping comments = merge conflicts, so try to keep your comments spaced out.
Keep the comments rolling 😎
And for the Plus users, we've got another snazzy update for you…
drumroll 🥁🥁
Introducing: Typewriter scrolling! 📜📜
Typewriter scrolling keeps the line your typing on in a fixed spot, while the scrolling view moves around it.
Typed lines will move up the page, rather than down, as your cursor stays level, for a super steady writing experience—just like a typewriter!
To toggle on go to Editor settings -> Typewriter scrolling.
unironically I will block you for saying “my Shayla” about your blorbo. The meme came from people mocking a Black man for crying for his daughter. When you say that about a sketch of Skinny White Dude #27 you are treating Black pain as a joke. I want to assume most people don’t know the context and wouldn’t use it if they did but too many of yall straight up do not care and would keep using it anyways
either way now you do know, so you can either be better or shut the fuck up
I decided to make a post with plenty of petitions against the surveillance of the Internet from plenty of different places. Don't hesitate to reblog with petitions I didn't put, be they from your country or not. Let's make a long chain of action.

Governments are walling off the open internet. We are a global movement opposing restrictions, and building a better internet.
United States

Europe
Learn about the EU Chat Control proposal and contact your representatives to protect digital privacy and encryption.
As of the first of August, the script isn't updated so I'm providing with a new script based on the script present on Chat Control and the words of one of the petitions (don't worry I got the autorisation of the latter) that you can send during the month of August:
(Beginning of script)
Dear member of the European Parliament,
I am writing to urge you to oppose all the regulations that will permanently allow the mass indiscriminate scanning of all European's messages especially "Chat Control 2.0" for numerous reasons:
1. It destroys the privacy of 450 millions of European citizens. This isn't targeted scanning, an IA will have access to all the private texts and all the photos any citizen will send to their family, to their friends, to anyone.
2. The IA is unreliable at best. It has already been known for flagging vacation photos and discussions between teenagers, the very people this measure is meant to protect, and sending those to the authorities.
3. It doesn't protect the children. Quite the contrary, if they know their every words are being read and potentially sent to the authorities, they might seize talking about taboo topics like rape.
Worst, if they don't know about sexual harassment, how can they even defend themselves against it. It is impossible to defend people by making them ignorant.
4. It would flood the authorities with false positives and drown them in mountains of conversations and photos that are irrelevant to child rape.
5. It wouldn't work. The pedocriminals don't use the sites where honest people go. They will simply continue their practices unbothered on insecure platforms and therefore be unaffected by this measure.
6. The non-permanent measure has been passed in an anti-democratic way with the measure being a rewrite of a law rejected by the Parliament, treated as a second reading (so only a majority of MEPs could stop it), just before summer break. This wasn't a fair vote and agreeing to a permanent regulation would show that democracy isn't an important value anymore.
For all those reasons, we need to fight back and we need to defend real measures against child abusers, we have to push back against surveillance measures that will affect everyone, especially the children and future adults.
This fight starts with you as our shield against these unfair, ineffective and dangerous measures that will do more harm than good.
Yours sincerely,
[Your name]
[Your address]
[Optional: profession / background, e.g. “software engineer”, “parent of two children”, etc.]

Word of encouragement
As you can see we are not alone in fighting back everywhere against measures that go against our privacy. I am not alone and neither are you.
hey tumblr! did we know about the AI sharing option??
direct quote: "Prevent this blog's content—even in reblogs—from being shared with our licensed network of content and research partners, including those that train AI models."
to opt out of AI training
on PC: on the left column, click on the "Account" tab. click on your blog's name/icon. on the right column click on "View blog". click the "Blog settings" button. scroll _all the way down to the last option_ right before "Blocked Tumblrs". hit the toggle button so it is lit up blue and the circle is on the right.
on mobile: click the little person's head icon on the bottom menu (all the way on the right). click the gear icon in the top right. click on "Visibility" (instead of privacy for some reason??). hit the toggle button so it is lit up blue and the circle is on the right.
(if you do this on either PC or mobile, it will effect both. you don't have to do it twice for the same blog)
you are now opted out from your blog training AI. and make sure you do this for EVERY BLOG YOU OWN!
hey actual @tumblr? THIS SHOULD BE OPT-IN NOT OPT-OUT
is there anything new or particularly worrying with google?
From what I can remember at this current moment
They added a new face scanning feature that allows them to scan your face and use it to sign into google (it's not required, but still)
they want to basically kill the main idea of andriod by making developers scan their ID's and pay fee to be become "verified" and a bunch of other stuff that would make andriod, not andriod anymore
Your phone is about to stop being yours. In 2027, Google will block every Android app whose developer hasn't registered with them.
I can't think of anything else, anyone else want to add anything new or old that I missed?

Feel free to save and share around. This is just a simple cheat sheet to get the personality you want fast. I made this based on the European localisation btw, the US one should take the same inputs but the descriptions for the personalities might be different. I unno. Enjoy
