Honestly not everyone uses the forum so I can bet a bunch of authors are either still updating for the users that have their works in their library, Or writing huge amounts to save for if the bug gets fixed, and last but not least some authors will probably drop their work thinking no one likes their Fic.
I expect views for fics will go down drastically because of this
Idk if you didn't scroll down to read threads with this exact problem cause if you did you wouldn't have posted this
Why is webnovel the only site I've seen that doesn't post any Worm fics this shits ridiculous I've been on SV,SB,Ao3,QQ,FF.
But sites like Webnovel and Wattpad have like less than 10 and died like a year or more ago
I'll assume it'll take another half day for it to fix but atleast if it's in my library it still pings updates
