Hiya, was wondering if you know if it's possible to sort of save a set of filters on Ao3's search?

Im a picky picky person who knows what they like and I use the filters liberally. But it's a pain to put it in every time I accidentally close my Ao3 tab or I wander into a new fandom. I'm well aware you can favourite a single tag, but I'm talking multiple tags included and excluded.

Thanks for your time and thoughts!

If you want to look up the same filtered tag again and again, the easiest way is to bookmark the results page. The URL has all of the filters in it, so reloading that URL will give you the latest results with all of the filters applied.

sidenote: it's possible to throw an error by applying too many filters just because it hits the max length of URL allowable by the browser

If you want to apply the same filters to lots of different tags, then you might be better off using the Saved Filters Bookmarklet creatied by reisling on AO3.

I'm a HUGE fan of this script https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/8382-ao3-tracking

It allows you to search for something, add all your filters/exclusions you want on it and then save it, and then with one button have it tell you if there are any updates to that filter and how many. Really helps with rare things that get maybe one update a week and you're constantly refreshing them...

I like to use it with https://greasyfork.org/scripts/5835-ao3-kudosed-and-seen-history which puts a red bar on fics I haven't even seen in a search result before.

[rocketmouse]

I use AO3 Savior (https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/3579-ao3-savior) which lets me blacklist or whitelist tags universally across the AO3. So if I never want to read High School AUs, I can block that in the script and it's blocked no matter what tag I'm in. It works on multiple types of tags, and includes wildcard searching.

I wanted to ask what you thought of this newly developed Fanfiction.lol if you’ve heard of it? For me it kind of looks like a ao3 knockoff with double standards (like allowing “dark themed fics” but not allowing things such as underage sex?).

It also says that ai isn’t allowed (and I haven’t fully read the details about the website yet) but it seems like the situation you often talk about how real authors could get damaged by witch hunt situations.

I’ve never heard of it before. that said, “we’re allowing this thing but we’re not allowing that thing” is pro-censorship — even though underage stuff makes me uncomfortable and it’s what I avoid if I ever come across it, when I say “no censorship” I mean no censorship — so that alone tells me the platform is not something I’m interested in (why would I be interested in a pro-censorship version of ao3 when I have ao3?)

also I can already see genuine writers getting wrongly accused of using ai because they write about ships or topics that are disliked by others.

I figure pro-censorship folks and bullies who like to harass others over fiction would enjoy it though. so I guess it’s a good thing if it means these people finally leave ao3 alone.

[just-a-random-dungeon-master]

the dev is hosting it literally just for fun. Also works aren’t allowed if they’re illegal in Canada, which has different laws on fiction than the USA. Calling it censorship to just abide by a different country’s law is kinda very fucked up ngl

[allthingswhumpyandangsty]

ngl I specifically said I've never heard of it before so how tf am I supposed to know which country it's from lmao. what I originally knew was what the anon told me. and since I say I wasn't interested, I wasn't going to google it in the first place

"kinda very fucked up" personally I think this is very vanilla but to each their own

concerts should cost 3 shiny nickels and be a block away. beautiful women take my hand we're going

[gaygoatshane]

i'm not joking when i say ilya admitting to shane that he looked up compatible was one of the bravest things ever. shane also asking for ilya's room number was so brave too. i love them

[shanesloverboy]

i don't think i'll ever get over the look on Ilya's face after Shane says he loves him too

[madrasaur]

yes hockey IS that serious

[sozvezdiyay]

Obsessed with the idea of Shane randomly encountering Bad Bunny at a bar just like he encountered Rose. (Because he has the BEST luck.)

But he doesn't know who Bad Bunny is, and Bad Bunny doesn't know who Shane is... So they're both just making small talk with this hot guy they met at the bar while they wait for their drinks. They're enjoying talking to someone who doesn't know their celebrity status. And Shane is getting a little flustered despite being married, because damn if this guy isn't his type, and Bad Bunny is lowkey flirting with him.

And then Ilya shows up and has a heart attack. Alternating between fanboying over Bad Bunny and wanting to fight him. Just standing there frozen with this bonkers expression on his face.

And Shane is completely oblivious. "Hey, you're back! I ordered you a beer. Oh, and this is Benito. Benito, this is my husband Ilya........... Baby, are you okay? Why do you look like that?"

[hesterias]

Okay but @shrekhollander absolutely cooked with these lyrics. This is canon to me.
