Not to weigh in too heavily on the current discourse or anything but I think a lot of you have gotten too comfortable with how readily available fics are without stopping to consider that a real person is behind that creation and that they put a lot of themselves into making it

No. I don’t want to be a professional author. I want to nerd out with other nerds into the same things as me. That’s what we mean when we say we want engagement. We want community, not a second job lmao
Fanfic being viewed as content to be consumed with no expectation of direct connection to the writer makes sense when we realize it comes from the generation that grew up watching YouTube, seeing community as talking with each other vs. talking directly to the creator.
I think this perfectly encapsulates the fundamental disconnect because using comments as the metric: I don’t mean community as in readers talking to each other. I mean community as readers talking to the writer who is— also— a fellow fan.
Replying to @seek_rest
I'll stand by my idea that wattpad actually has better community than ao3. it's especially obvious back in the day where you can find a bunch of ppl just chatting amongst e/o on a comment to a random line. I think what went wrong is that ao3's system leaves comments way out of
years ago, I argued that the fandom ecosystem was destroyed when people started seeing fanfic as content to consume vs. being in community with fellow fans. This entire discourse has proven me right.
sorry to wreckage of you nation I guess. my weekly update plan just bit me in the ass if ao3 is gonna be down for 2-4 weeks.
I guess that gives me more time to write even more ahead??

I’m sorry did I read that correctly. AO3 is going to be down for TWO-FOUR WEEKS?????????
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/

i could spend hours watching the way this suit catches the light and seeing the humanity underneath come through. it's just so mesmerizing.
Not to complain about irondad fandom again but I will: the character assassination of both Peter and Tony becoming “established fanon” to the point of any meaningful critique/commentary/analysis of their CANON relationship launching a firestorm of attacks is abjectly miserable
still complaining that BND “forgot” Tony is mind boggling! The good juice about them is their LOST POTENTIAL!!! Canon peter didn’t “forget” about the long weekends at the avengers campus or Tony’s deep mentorship, you’re mad that canon didn’t support the shit you made up!
I’ve stayed away from Doomsday speculation because I’m fairly confident the plot (along with Secret Wars) is obvious if you have any knowledge of the comics.
That being said my one ice cold take: I want Spider-Man, specifically Peter Parker, named as an anchor being.

i knew this was going to be a disaster for 18-25 year olds who think the entire world operates the same way stan twitter does but watching them work through "the selection of who will be on a magazine cover is based on promotion and marketing" in real time has been truly absurd
can you believe that brand new day not only brought Ned back but had him be a defining relationship to Peter. that Ned loved his best friend that he didn’t even remember to the point of INVENTION and even ended the whole movie with their reconnection I’m—
