Containment Breach
I've been inundated with over 120 new followers in the last 5 hours. I haven't been able to even check if I have any pornbots. I'm tired and need to go to bed. I'll clean up this mess tomorrow.
This is cool to look at, though. I’m studying some data-science adjacent fields so things like this are fascinating to me.
Just discovered another way the infinite reblog post is broken.
Not only does every non-comment post appear as a comment post with the last person's name as a comment
![Three different comment reblogs that say "shiningnightstars:" The third also has tags saying "#prev[It is 333 reblogs long] #<- splatoon number!!!"](https://64.media.tumblr.com/05aae8e0e6a3705ca5d0df6239b57a4d/163217553b29eb41-54/s1280x1920/d27a68628913150b63dabeaac64d7997f5aa6bfa.png)
ALTbut I also don't get notified if someone does a tags-only reblog. I made sure to check notification settings and they have nothing to do with it. I got a notificationabout spectator-lawful-evil and cindershitpost reblogging, but not anton-exe.
Also, when I go to someone's blog by following a notification on this post, the rest of their blog will load faster than the infinite reblog post.
A pair of goobers decided to reblog a certain infinite reblog post and my desktop dashboard is completely unusable now.
I also discovered these images in the console debugger as a result:

Update 2: Electric Boogaloo
Turns out the above issue is desktop exclusive. I also cannot load any posts on the blogs involved with the Infinite Reblog Post if I access them on Desktop. I just get an error.
I’m going to guess the Desktop loads a greater bulk amount of posts than Mobile and the issue is the Infinite post is so long that even a few sequential instances will flood Tumblr’s servers with nearly 2,000 API calls.

I want to show what the infinite reblog post's reblog graph looks like because it's so interesting.
It is an almost singular line of reblogs.

i will finish it eventually

I've been told I should submit this to world-heritage-posts. Just to make it clear what happened to me, here's a screenshot of my notifications activity in the last 24 hours.
For additional context, I've only been here 4 days.
At his point, I’ve been here 5 days and this post has 85k+ notes. My notifications have recovered to the point that sometimes they’re empty so I’d say the breach has been recontained and now I just need to deal with the cleanup process.
I figure it might be interesting to show just what this experience has been like.
This is my notification history over the last week. I joined Tumblr Saturday June 17th, 2023 around 12pm so the actual data starts half way through the chart. My follower count has grown at a roughly equal pace.
Overall, I enjoyed the whole thing once the shock died down. I was just surprised this was the post that would gain any traction at all. I expected the chicken posts would be the first ones to reach triple digits and only several months later. But I’ve enjoyed reading peoples’ reactions and chatting with folks here.
I’ll close out by sharing some other achievements I’ve gotten since:
And with this, I’m going to call this chapter of the Saga of Containment Breach closed
