🛠 Fixes

• Fixed a bug in the beta post editor on web that was preventing users from creating new text blocks after hitting the character limit in one text block. Now, you should be able to create more text blocks by pressing Enter, which would stay within the current text block before. Pressing Shift + Enter allows you to add newlines to an existing text block. We’re still working on more bug fixes for related issues limiting how much text can be put in a post.
• Fixed a bug in the beta post editor on web that was only allowing five mentions to be used, when the limit is meant to be 50.

• An “Open in Dashboard” button has been added in the Tumblr blog header for opening blogs and posts in your dashboard on web.
• On web, you can now also hold “e” and click the reblog button to Fast Reblog; we’re trying to move away from using Alt, as it conflicts with browser shortcuts.
• There is now a “Goth Rave” palette available on web, inspired by the new app icon for Tumblr on iOS.

🛠 Fixed

• Fast reblogging on web (by holding “e” and clicking the reblog button) should no longer copy the post’s date or tags.
• Images that are larger than 300px by 600px will be stretched to fill the full post view on web (formerly it was any image less than 300px wide, regardless of height).
• Sharing posts to Twitter was broken for a short period of time yesterday (March 4th), but it should be resolved now.
• Tumblr was generally unstable for a brief period of time yesterday (March 4th), but those issues should also be resolved now.
• Fixed an issue where using an emoji before a mention in a reply would break the mention.
