I don't know if these topics have been discussed or anything. After watching Endgame I went a few weeks trying to get myself to be okay with not focusing so heavily on the idea of the one continuity since there's just no way for the shows we have left to logistically acknowledge the snap. Still, the part of me that's been so invested in this for years has two questions:

1) Since the Netflix, Hulu, and Freeform shows don't mention Thanos at all, could it be possible that they take all place in the timeline that Thanos left in 2014, leading to things staying pretty much the same on Earth except Infinity War doesn't happen?

(((SHIELD Spoilers ahead)))))))

2) I know Agents of SHIELD's big mistake was acknowledging Thanos at all.  Jumping ahead only one year and staying in the a timeline with Thanos very much in it means it should be real dusty, and I just can't accept that half the world disappeared and SHIELD is focused on weird anomalies instead of helping with the logistics of healing from the mass disappearance, which HAS to take more than a year, it just has to.  Other communities I'm in have suggested the theory that when they avoided cracking the Earth, they didn't just escape that timeline, but also the timeline where the Snap happened.  It would help explain the lack of a world that should still be very much in mass mourning, but I needed to see the butterfly.  I needed to figure out why Graviton being beaten in Chicago meant Thanos' forces attacking New York but not getting all the stones, and apparently caused a rift in space that happened to be in the exact position to crack Fitz' cryoship in half. I'm sure that once we find out what exactly Sarge and co are up to, things will either make more or less sense, but do you think that it's possible that breaking the cracked-Earth loop somehow stuck the show on a separate timeline from the movies?
