User blog:MrYokaiAndWatch902/This is why I can't have good times on UCP.

Pardon the misleading title, this is supposed to list me and other's problems. I can't get used to UCP. Yes, I understand the situation; FANDOM is running on an outdated MediaWiki software and must update before the wiki collapses, but remember; change has to be good. This is likely why everybody is saying "NOBODY ASKED FOR THE UCP!" despite asking for it, because it is a PAIN. Pardon myself if my language gets aggressive.

Also, if you're gonna say "Install DevWiki codes", that doesn't change how bad UCP as a whole can get.

My Problems
Well, that's all the problems I have. If you have any problems with UCP lemme know below aside from just screaming "Stop the UCP!" which I will not add.
 * 1) They kill off Classic Editor, because from what I can tell, it is buggy according to them. However, the new editor is far more buggier. And laggier. One thing that makes the new editor bad is that Source Mode highlighting an entire page becomes an infuriatingly difficult thing to do because of the lag (unless your page is REAL small) and another thing is that vignettes/statics only activate when you publish your edits. It may not sound significant, but it might make something longer than it should be.
 * 2) *Also, I could swear when I double-click to highlight an entire sentence you can't highlight anything else. Google Docs can do that, why not this editor?!
 * 3) Additional problems that aren't related to code with the new editor include:
 * 4) *You can't make article polls anymore. You go onto Discussions (I'll explore more later) and then you type your poll. You can only do six at a time... when in the previous polls, you can literally do WAY more than that.
 * 5) *Galleries no longer have the customization you can give them. Additionally, some galleries are even replaced with these. Luckily, it's easy to fix; you just remove a gallery, then you undo your edits. It also fixes all other broken galleries.
 * 6) *Thinking of tabviews? Nope, not a chance!
 * 7) They kill off Wiki Activity and make RecentChanges the only way to see new edits. Wiki Activity helped many, and before the migration pause everybody was angered at the loss of it. Also before the migration pause, Recent Changes can only find edits and not comments. Reason? It was supposed to be for at-a-glance stuff if I remember correctly.
 * 8) Article Comments now run on the same engine Discussions run on. First off, it's entirely nowiki, so you can't strikethrough, and second off, when it comes to images, you have to upload them yourself. The nowiki is... well, intentional. It is more of a downgrade when you come to think of it.
 * 9) The bell replacing the mail is just not good. As far as my mind I can read, once you click a message from mail that message is marked as read, but the bell? It's not marked unless you click mark all as read. That's probably a me problem, I don't know.
 * 10) *The bell is also there to try and encourage you to make posts to get likes. (Thanks Taeraredstar!)
 * 11) Wikis that rely on Forums, Chat (which P.S. I rely on for feedback), and potentially even the aforementioned Galleries are crippled. Sure, Chat was outdated, but I can't tell if it was removed just to promote Discord (which if it was, is just... no). Now speaking of which...
 * 12) Discussions is bad and clunky. Some of the problems can be applied to the new Article Comments.
 * 13) *You cannot customize your text that much. Like said, it is nuked with nowiki.
 * 14) *It depends on your patience, but if you want to find one single post you like, you're going to have to scroll miles down. Forget about patience, you're probably going to be really irritated by then unless you get lucky.
 * 15) *Clicking on one's username doesn't direct you to their profile. It instead shows you their discussions profile. Additionally, instead of something like "/f/u/MrYokaiAndWatch902", you get some random number.  It could be excusable for Discussions Posts, but this?
 * 16) *Discourages editting. (Thanks Taeraredstar!)
 * 17) Why did they kill off the Following Tab? For those not familiar, that tab shows pages you have editted or commented on and is helpful if you have like 70+ userpages (which I do). But in UCP, they just strike it out and probably replace it with Activity, which only shows their social activity.

Other Problems People Experienced
The lag may be because of relying on JavaScript. I'm not sure.

 * UCP Pages have a high chance of being laggier than their Legacy version. Can get irritating at times, such as message walls.
 * RecentChanges and Social Activity being seperate from each other makes moderation harder and it's a chore. Wiki Activity has both. According to them, it's complex... or is it??? Why can't we like, spend time trying to figure it out?
 * Discussions feels more like an attempt to pander and copy the streamlined functionality of more modern websites. Additionally, it's riddled with problems, though hey; it's above.
