#it also reordered the items visually to match the old order

((Things I said in the replies that I want to add as a caveat while reblogging this:

Your interaction in the new layout is almost definitely still being logged (as opposed to being considered the old dash) for analytics purposes (the A/B testing they’re doing to see how people interact with Tumblr differently with the new layout), so if you care about what they’re seeing in the analytics, note that they’ll probably still see it because there’s basically no way either XKit or a CSS style could do anything to touch that kind of logging. (EDIT: XKit probably CAN send information that causes an A/B test to disable (because apparently JS is capable of doing that under certain circumstances), but its settings probably DON'T here. CSS, on the other hand, is basically completely incapable of doing something like that though.)

The number of people in the reblogs and replies calling this a script are making me want to pull my hair out. It’s a user style, which uses CSS and is basically the web equivalent of rearranging furniture (special code that’s active all the time but doesn’t really “run”), rather than Javascript (what userscripts use, special code that usually only runs on page load (unless you do some funky stuff), the web equivalent of... IDK, running a Roomba?). It’s a semi-important distinction: Stylus cannot run JS user scripts (only user styles), and most user script extensions (TamperMonkey, ViolentMonkey, etc.) cannot natively run a CSS user style (AFAIK) without it being converted to a script that does nothing but implement the CSS code slightly differently.

The More You Know, and all that nonsense.))
