AO3 code is finally deployed! *falls over* big rundown of changes
I always expect things to calm down after a big deploy, and I don't know why, because it never actually works out that way.
One thing that's probably worth mentioning is that when you make really extensive changes to things, which we did this time to really all of the html and css, along with the code that cleans up and formats titles/summaries/stories/comments/etc., you gain things: accessibility, maintainability, speed, performance. But you also lose all the testing and debugging work that had gone into the old code, so it's especially helpful for us to get feedback about what works and what doesn't, and what people like and what they dislike.

Smaller feature that you may find handy: Tag Search (you can also get there through the tag cloud page)
It isn't very fancy yet, but it's a good way to see what tags are actually in the archive and what the official/canonical version of each one is. It also gives you a glimpse of what kind of work the tag wranglers do - I count 17 versions of the fandom name for the newest Star Trek movie.
You can also see all the community tags, all the alternate universe/reality tags, and the ever-popular ____ made ____ do it tags.
