How do you sort your fics on Ao3? (I do it by word count but I am curious as to what is the most popular preference)

New question for you guys. This is one I’ve seen several authors do:
What do you prefer--
Long one-shot
Multichapter, posted a chapter a week
Multichapter, posted all at once
Reply, reblog or send an ask with your answer! Remember to add why.
Me: You know those y/n fics? Yeah, I never really read them in my name
Friend: why?
Me: It's too much work
Friend: (In disbelief) your NAME is too much work?
Me: (shrugs) well, most of the times I read fanfics is for stress relief, and because I'm stressed, my brain capacity is only capable of processing easy stuff, and changing y/n to my name is too much work
Friend: But reading requires more brain capacity! And I know what kind of fanfics you read, it has complicated plots and romance and fancy vocabularies!
Me, thinking: Well maybe I just don't like imagining myself acting as not me
Me, trying to put it in words: It's just too much work. Besides, I much prefer to think of them as their own character, y'know?
Friend: Uh-huh, sure. But we're getting nowhere, you were asking me a fanfic recommendation, how did we stray so far-
For those of you interested in After Dark (or any other WIPs), I need to know: do you prefer to read chapters on tumblr or on another platform (ie wattpad). I haven’t decided if I’m going to re-upload the AD chapters on here, upload only excerpts, or only keep the chapters up on wattpad. Please give some feedback and let me know what your preference is! I am hoping to pursue publishing with After Dark; I suppose that’s important.
I dont know if you've been asked this before but what's youre favorite fanfiction themes n stuff?
I’m not sure I understand your question.
A theme in writing is the subject matter, the message, the feeling the overall tone gives the reader. I don’t really have a favorite theme. I’m an English teacher (close enough), I love all themes.
If you meant genre...it’s kind of the same deal. I will read, angst, hurt comfort, fluff, romance, adventure, mystery, not too much in horror, and anything else I can get my hands on. I’ll get sick on one extreme and go to the other.
If you meant fandoms...I’m kind of buried in FF7 and Zelda. I dabble in Harry Potter some. I just haven’t had much time to really delve deep into other fandoms and there’s a few that I’m a little scared to look at.
Overall, if it’s got an intriguing plot, decent usage of grammar and conventions, and seems to flow well as a story then I’ll read it.
Sorry for completely avoiding your question anon.
I prefer reading to listening. My mind will not give any damn to everything I'm listening to unless it's awfully interesting, while everything I read is surely an interesting one and thus, my mind will get focused 100% on that.

Popular Books You Have No Desire to Read
Does anyone else have a few popular books they have no desire to read?
There are some books out there I have no desire to read even though they have mixed to good reviews:
1. Twilight series
2. Chronicles of Narnia
3. The Perks of Being a Wallflower
4. The Fault in Our Stars (I may be convinced otherwise)
Never apologize for your reading tastes.
