Hey Frank, could you come up with some ideas for shitty new Tumblr features?

There are some ideas that are pretty funny.

Some of them are pretty funny but are just so awful that I don't want them to exist, as I have some level of disgust reflex that would prevent me from liking them even if they were the funniest thing ever.

For instance, one of them is "we're going to create a feature called'sorting' so that you can see all of your posts from a specific date, which you can do by clicking on the little date icon at the top of the screen – no problem there!

But then we'll sort them chronologically instead of by number of likes, or maybe by the sum of likes and reblogs and the like. This would mean that my blog would start out in a very 'boring' state because I mostly reblog the same few posts and don't go around liking and reblogging everybody's posts. If I reblog your post, your posts would go on the top of my blog, and if I comment on your post, your post would show up on the bottom of my blog.

The funny part about this is that a huge proportion of the time, I don't ever remember who reblogged a post from me or whether it was a reblog or a reblog from a reblog. So this feature is basically useless to me. I like to think that "the sum of likes and reblogs" is a reasonable representation of how much I'm posting over time. I want to be able to click on an icon and see all of my posts at any given time, or see a specific date at any given time.

Also, I often post about a lot of stuff, but I don't post about all of it, so a chronological sorting system would mean that my reblogs would start being more and more random and I would rarely have much to say about anything that happened.

Then there's a separate thing called "sorting by recent activity." Basically, the idea is that people can set up a Tumblr that is 'private' and only viewable by people who follow them. The 'private' posts are not linked to the person's username anywhere, and can only be viewed on a'sorting' page which will be like a big timeline. If I post something that is private, my friends have to click the'see this post' button on the'sorting' page and then go to my tumblr and click the button to 'view' it, instead of just seeing it in my activity page. (In other words, it's just like having a blog without having to deal with people finding out about it.)

This also has the disadvantage that people can't reblog private posts directly, they have to reblog them from a friend who is private and then have their friend go to the 'private' blog. People also won't see posts they reblogged from me on their activity pages, so they'd have to check the'sorting' page to see what I've written lately.

For a variety of reasons, I think this could be a fun and interesting feature, and I could definitely see someone using it for their tumblr. Then the problem becomes: when does Tumblr add this to their UI? And when do you have to click'sort by recent activity' or go to a 'private' page? Should Tumblr show posts from private pages to everyone as long as I sort by activity?

Also, the problem with this is that I'm already using my blog as an archive, and sort by activity would be an entirely new way of using my blog. I'd have to click a new button on my activity page every time I want to read posts that are recent. If I'm looking at posts that are older, I may not want to see the most recent one – I want to go through my archive.

Also also, as far as I can tell, people don't actually do this? There are people who have made blogs that are private but not using this functionality. So if they actually had this feature, I guess they'd just be making a 'private' blog, even though there's no reason not to just have an archive.

I'm trying to come up with a feature that will take advantage of all of Tumblr's cool new features that have been added since I stopped using tumblr, which are all things I don't want. Also, the whole point is that this new feature should be awful.

What are we going to build? We’re going to walk through creating a new basic Mapbox style in our Mapbox account. Once created, we’re going to use their Map API to add a custom basemap to our React Leaflet app. Gatsby Starter Leaflet with Mapbox basemapFor our map, we’re going to use this Leaflet Gatsby Starter I created that will allow you to easily spin up a new mapping app. Before we spin that up though, I’ll walk you through how to add it using only React Leaflet components. A mapping app? Yup! Maps are used all around the world to study datasets for geographic locations. They're important tools for scientists and others that are trying to help the world. Coronavirus (COVID-19) custom mapIf you want to learn more about building a map and adding data to it, you can check out some of my other articles first such as creating a Coronavirus (COVID-19) map or a Summer Road Trip map as well as a little bit of inspiration about why Anyone Can Map. What is Mapbox? Mapbox is a mapping platform that allows its customers to create custom mapping solutions. They also leverage a variety of APIs that provide powerful capabilities for building map features. mapbox.comFor our purposes, we’re going to utilize their Map API, specifically their Static Tiles API, to serve a custom map style that we create. Part 1: Creating a custom Mapbox style To get the look and feel that we want for our map, it’s important to have a basemap that helps make our data present itself without distractions. Plus, sometimes it’s fun to have a custom map. Mapbox account The first thing we’ll need to set up our custom Mapbox style is to have an account. I'm not going to walk you through that process, but you can head over to Mapbox’s website where you can sign up for free: mapbox.com Creating a new custom style Creating a new style in Mapbox isn’t as hard as it sounds. While it can get really complex if you want something unique, we can copy one of Mapbox’s default styles to get started. First, head over to Mapbox’s Studio dashboard by clicking your account link in the top right corner when logged in. Mapbox StudioOnce we’re on our Studio dashboard, we want to select the New Style button. Create a new style in Mapbox StudioAfter clicking the button, a modal will pop up allowing you to choose a template. You can choose whatever you want here, but I’m going to choose Monochrome with a variation of Dark. And after you’ve selected your template, click the Customize button. Select and customize a template for a new style in Mapbox StudioAnd now we’re dropped into our customization UI. Mapbox customize style UIFrom here, you can really do what you’d like. There are a ton of options to customize your map. It’s a little complex to try to dig in here, but Mapbox provides some resources to try to help you get productive. Generating a Mapbox token Once you’re happy with your new style and everything’s published, we want to generate a token that we’ll use for providing access to our Map. Head on over to the Account section of the Mapbox dashboard. Creating a new token in MapboxMapbox provides you with a “default” token that you can use in your applications. You're free to use this, but I recommend creating a new token that you can provide a unique name, that way if you ever blow past the free tier of Mapbox, you’ll be able to track your usage. Additionally, it’s best to keep a separate token for each application, that way you can easily rotate an individual key, without having to update every application using it. Once you click Create a token, you can set up the key how you’d like, with the scopes and permissions you choose, but for our purposes, you can leave all of the Public scopes checked for our map, which they do by default. Create a new access token in Mapbox Configuring our custom endpoint For this tutorial, we’re going to use Mapbox’s Static Tiles service. Mapbox Static Tiles Maps APIOur endpoint will look like the following: https://api.mapbox.com/styles/v1/{username}/{style_id}/tiles/256/{z}/{x}/{y}@2x?access_token={access_token} There are a few parameters here we need to understand: username: this will be your Mapbox account’s username style_id: this will be the ID of the style you created before z, x, y: these are parameters that Leaflet programmatically swaps out, so we want to leave them as is access_token: this is the Mapbox key you created above To find your username and style ID, we can use the Style URL for our new Mapbox style to get those values. Finding the Style URL in Mapbox StudioIn my example, my Style URL looks like: mapbox://styles/colbyfayock/ck8lryjfq0jdo1ip9ctmuhc6p colbyfayock is my username and ck8lryjfq0jdo1ip9ctmuhc6p is my style ID. And once I update my endpoint parameters, the final tilepoint URL will look like: https://api.mapbox.com/styles/v1/colbyfayock/ck8lryjfq0jdo1ip9ctmuhc6p/tiles/256/{z}/{x}/{y}@2x?access_token=MYACCESSTOKEN Part 2: Adding a custom TileLayer to React Leaflet When building a map with React Leaflet, your main component will be a that wraps the entirety of the app. This is what sets up your Map instance for Leaflet. For our purposes here, we’re going to use the example on the React Leaflet homepage as our starting point. React Leaflet TileLayer Component Inside of your component you include a component, which defines the imagery of the world that you base your map upon. The example on the React Leaflet homepage uses a public version of OpenStreetMap as their TileLayer, which is an open source map project created and updated by people all around the world. This gives you a basic map, but we want to swap in Mapbox so we can set up a custom look and feel for our map. Custom Mapbox TileLayer To add our custom style, we’ll want to update the url and attribution props of the TileLayer component. For URL, it will simply be the custom style endpoint we created earlier, so in my example, it looks like: https://api.mapbox.com/styles/v1/colbyfayock/ck8lryjfq0jdo1ip9ctmuhc6p/tiles/256/{z}/{x}/{y}@2x?access_token=MYACCESSTOKEN For attribution, we want to credit Mapbox as the service, so we want to set our attribution as: Map data © OpenStreetMap contributors, CC-BY-SA, Imagery © Mapbox When plugged in to our TileLayer, our code should now look like this: And once we open up our map, we should see our new basemap! React Leaflet with a Mapbox basemap See the code! If you want to see how I did it, check out the diff commit by commit. The only caveat there is I created an .env.development.local file in the root of my project in which I stored a new environment variable called REACT_APP_MAPBOX_KEY  to store my Mapbox key. Part 3: Adding a custom basemap to Gatsby Starter Leaflet I’ve written a few other articles on how to get started with my Leaflet Gatsby Starter, but for this part, we’ll want to have a basic app spun up that we can use to change our TileLayer endpoint. Setting up our React Leaflet Gatsby app To get started, check out the instructions on the Starter github: https://github.com/colbyfayock/gatsby-starter-leaflet Once you’re ready, you should have a basic mapping app ready to go! New Leaflet Gatsby app in the browser Configuring our Mapbox service The first thing we’ll want to do is add Mapbox as a service in our src/data/map-services.js file. Taking our custom endpoint URL that we created in Part 1, let’s set up a new object with a name of Mapbox, and with a url and attribution similar to what we did in Part 2. export const mapServices = [ { name: ‘OpenStreetMap’, attribution: '©
