    Tumblr appearance is suddenly messed up as of yesterday. the scrollbox is suddenly far too big, i have to reduce screensize to 80% to see user icons.
    Turning this extension off fixes it, which is a pain as otherwise this extension is great.

    Edit. Panorama (new?) feature was automatically turned on which i had not done. Turning that off fixed the issue.

    EDIT 2 - I never had Panorama on ever. Also checked all the boxes and there were two i ALWAYS have on that were turned off- quick tags and quote replies. So either i have a digital poltergeist...or

    edit 3 - as id made a post on Tumblr about the change ive had a number of replies from other users who also had this issue, that say they never had Panorama turned on and found it as such.

    Please be assured that new features in XKit Rewritten do not enable themselves. The only circumstance in which anything will enable itself is if we replace a feature's option with something else (e.g. moving an option from Tweaks to No Recommended, or splitting one option into two that when combined do the same thing as the old option).

    Panorama is not a new feature, but it has been broken for around two years as a result of Tumblr's new three-column site layout. What's likely is that you enabled the feature before or during this time, and now that it's fixed, it's obeying your pre-existing configuration and "suddenly" activating as a result.

    If you have any recent configuration backups, you should be able to see Panorama in the list of enabled features there to corroborate what I've stated.

    UPDATE: refreshed the site and it finally started working again. no idea what that was about

    Tumblr's API is having issues today, nothing specific to XKit.

    XKit Rewritten is still working! It's New XKit that Firefox has been disabling. Please start a discussion on GitHub if you need help getting anything working: https://github.com/AprilSylph/XKit-Rewritten/discussions

    Unfortunately, there are no hidden recommendations, although i have included everything i could in "No Recommended".

    The feature does not hide recommendations that can be toggled off in Tumblr's own settings.

    You can find these help sections via the question mark button next to each feature's toggle.

    I absolutely love this extension! Its super useful. I was wondering if a feature to hide "Check out these communities" and "Related communities" In the dashboard and tags would possibly come in the future? :) Thanks for making this btw!!

    Essential for Tumblr users. The accessibility features and option to remove various recommendations are especially useful.
