AO3 should have an Annotation Mode where you can click to view all of the author's commentary and thoughts about certain parts of the work. A little comment that says "I spent five hours researching vintage radio mechanics for this and didn't even end up using it" or "this is an ancient Hebrew literary technique!" would make my day
how i sleep knowing i write shitty fiction but at least don’t use chatgpt
a feel like the new generation of fanfic readers NEED to understand that clicking on a fic (interaction) does nothing. ao3 has no algorithm. your private discord discussions of fic do not reach the authors. if you do not actively engage with writers they will stop posting. this isn’t social media this is community.
It's like a family, almost. You don't let your teenagers stay isolated in their rooms, you give them encouragement and stuff, and if you don't, well, dang. Sad. Ao3 authors are those teenagers, they need encouragement!
one of the best feelings tbh

This comes one day after the archive changed their status to “Omega” for April Fools’ Day.
subscribing to a fic isn’t enough I need the author to blast a bat signal into the night sky whenever they update
Legit how it feels whenever I get an email notif about @silent--knight's update😄
no matter how bad things get, the world is still a beautiful place because it has archive of our own in it
MAY YOU NEVER LOSE YOUR HYPERFIXATION

Spelling mistakes? I guarantee neither of us saw those at 3:00 AM Monday Morning.

fandom etiquette as a whole died when people who didn’t grow up on fandoms became stans during lockdown, yes, but why am i seeing people openly mocking fics on twitter. why am i seeing screenshots of fics with captions like “bro what is this 😭.” why am i seeing people mock fic writers for not knowing how sports or theater or college or any other organization operates in the real world.
“college is absolutely nothing like this” “why are we writing four people on the team scoring a hat trick in one game” “so tech work is nothing like this, hope that helps!”
if you don’t like a fic, and if you can’t suspend your belief enough to enjoy a fic that exaggerates or ignores real-world orgs, you don’t have to read it. you don’t have to screenshot it and put it on blast for twitter. you don’t have to post a link to it in the replies. the back button is literally there on your phone. it’s not giving baby’s first fandom anymore, it’s giving entitled asshole and it isn’t as cute as you think it is.
I am once again begging people to realize that AI checker doesn’t work. it’s never worked. it’s notoriously known to have flagged human-made works as AI and AI-generated works as human-made. and by feeding it people’s works, you are feeding more works to AI, because apparently the machine itself is AI.
the only thing AI checker does is harm genuine artists and people in general too.
