ao3 outage being reported on cnn is a level of being perceived that i think is extremely bad for fandom 😭😭
never in my almost twenty years in fandom did i thought i would read/think/say the words “when ao3 comes back” as often as i do now i feel like an army wife waiting for my husband to come back from the war
AO3 is not social media and we gotta stop treating fandom like a popularity contest. Kudos are nice, but they aren't gonna keep you warm at night. Hits are nice, but they don't pay my bills. Some of y'all need to relax and quit focusing so much on "stats." It's not a competition.

What i'm learning is that there's a class of AO3 writers who really think they belong to a different class of fans.
They don't see themselves as fans sharing creativity with other fans, but as Writers doing a "service" to fandom. To which "non-writers" should be grateful for+

Благодаря тому, что ао3 схлопнулся, вскрылось гнилое болото неуверенных в себе потреблядей, которые в виду своей интеллектуальной и эмоциональной немощности не способны поставить просто лайк на фанфик, чтобы сказать автору, что его работа нравится и чтоб он продолжал

I was just joking, but at this point I genuinely believe Ao3 users are gonna be the ones that will kill Ao3

Fanfiction readers received quite a scare on Halloween as Archive of Our Own (AO3), one of the internet’s most popular fanfiction platforms, announced that its website could remain inaccessible for weeks following a “security incident.” tinyurl.com/muyyuv9d | via @latest_chika

i thought people wrote fics for their own enjoyment, i’m learning a lot from this ao3 discourse lol

People saying AO3 readers are unemployed is so funny when the reality is most of us are using AO3 specifically to cope with the tragedy of being employed

we should have a national quiet day, where everyone just shuts the fuck up for 24 hours

i think some of you are too young to remember the “I don’t own *original IP* or the characters. All rights belong to the creator. I gain no profit from this body of work.” disclaimer that was copy-pasted onto the start of every fanfic. bc wdym you think you “own” your fanfic 😭

i’ve said this so many times before but this fanfic discourse is an incredible way to distinguish who only began engaging with fandom post 2020
DIVA DOWN
We estimate that service restoration for #AO3 will take around 2 weeks but it could be up to 4 weeks. We are hopeful that we will be able to bring the site back up in a degraded state sooner. Refer to our status page for updates: otwstatus.org/
