Omgggg I didn’t have time to talk about this before but I used to be a huge fan of your Gojo fics :((( I was actively reading Behind the Glass and I already finished the previous Nerdjo one like I seriously loved your writing, it was so funny and awkward in the best way 😭😭
What actually happened, if you don’t mind me asking? I saw people saying AO3 writers were getting attacked, especially in the JJK fandom?? Why though?? As a Gojo fic writer myself I haven’t gotten any hate comments, so I was kinda confused… but maybe since your Nerdjo fic blew up it attracted more negativity :/ Was it about that fratjo/nerdjo drama?
Anyway, you really didn’t deserve any hate over typos >:( your writing is genuinely so good. And like, AO3 exists so you can write whatever you want don’t let haters control what you do
Oomggg hiii baddie!!!!! 😭💖 thank you :((( Okay so… long story short, but I genuinely had no idea anything like this was going on at first. I do think error 404 blowing up kinda triggered it, but suddenly I started getting insane anon asks on tumblr, and then it moved over to ao3 too… Like people accusing me of not writing my own work, using ai, stealing ideas, and then it escalated into straight up death threats ??? 💀
And because I wasn’t really active on tumblr anymore before all this, I didn’t even know targeted hate like this was happening… I just thought I somehow attracted the worst crowd imaginable. Then one day I logged in and saw other authors talking about it too and i was like… wait what the fuck is actually going on.
But it got really bad on ao3. i had to delete comments daily—like actual hate, threats, and even stuff directed at my readers too… and at some point i was just so exhausted and pissed that I couldn’t keep doing it anymore. Like i’m all for free speech, but people online clearly don’t understand boundaries at all, and it just became too much and i’m genuinely so sad I had to delete my ao3 account like that out of nowhere 😭 And worst of all, I probably wouldn’t have deleted my account that fast, but then I got a really weird dm on my personal insta that I NEVER publicly shared… and that’s when I got actually scared, the whole situation just kinda ruined internet spaces for me for a bit, which sucks so much because tumblr especially has been part of my life for basically half of it 💔
