My pet theory is that Tumblr is making fandom shit.

When fandom was mostly LJ based, the very nature of LJ meant most BNFs were at least articulate. Some even had a good grasp of the canon.

Now that fandom is mostly Tumblr based, the BNFs are the ones who can post the most crappy chibi art.

It's more a shift from fic to art. As an artist, it's a good platform for art.

What I don't enjoy are the heavy handed ~very important message~ comics and tired memes for notes.

AYRT True. It's really not great for fic though. And the sharing of ideas for meta.

DA

It's such a mess for meta, which is what I've gotten into lately. Impossible to keep track of discussions and have actual conversations, which makes me sad.

AYRT It really is impossible to have a linear discussion. I'm beginning to think that meta is the foundation of good stories in fandom too. Certainly in my current fandom, the lack of proper discussion seems to be effecting the quality of the fic.

AYRT

Ooh, that's actually a really interesting theory. I'd never thought of the connection before, but it has merit.

AYRT Well it certainly explains fandoms like Sherlock and Teen Wolf anyway.

I'm going to try posting some meta in my fandom, see if I can shake things up a bit. :)
