Well AO3 is a dumping ground, I'll give you that.

(Anonymous) 2015-12-06 08:40 pm (UTC)(link)
oh, word?

Still higher quality than FF. And better looking.

(Anonymous) 2015-12-06 08:57 pm (UTC)(link)
I know it used to be trendy to bag on FF.net, but AO3's problems are a lot more serious and systemic than The Pit's. AO3 is determined to be inclusive to the point of uselessness. Sometimes a little segregation helps the process along, and FF.net understands this a lot better. It's general appearance is just a matter of taste though, personally I like the look of the old pit a lot better than the carefully contrived "cute" look of AO3.

Both have their pros and cons, etc. Personally I still prefer the way the fics actually look on FF; something about the font bugs me on AO3.

It is true that most authors on it give no thought to their stories. It is all OOC fucking or cuddling. In drabble form usually, too.

I don't see the problem, but I admit to not understanding.

You and me both, OP! *high five*

Question: What do you think is the best fanfic site?

(Anonymous) 2015-12-06 10:23 pm (UTC)(link)
ao3 is the one I use the most, but the tagging could use some regulations.

FF.net's searching has gotten better, but it still has some of the same old problems.

Tumblr is great for gifsets and short comments but it's archiving is shit.

Livejournal/Dreamwidth are the layout we base a lot of are fic format wants on, but the community hubs that let us find people in the past are pretty dead.

Reddit has crossposting potential but little as a primary site. Great for meta and other long discussions though.

Wordpress. I don't much about it. Same problems are lj/dw and maybe a few others (?)

Are there any I am forgetting?

(Anonymous) 2015-12-06 10:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Do people actually post fic on Reddit and Wordpress? Or LJ or DW anymore for that matter.

Re: Question: What do you think is the best fanfic site?

(Anonymous) 2015-12-06 11:50 pm (UTC)(link)
People occasionally still post their fic on their dw/lj though always to either ao3 and/or ff.net too.

Are they still a thing? I thought they were deader than geocities.

Re: Question: What do you think is the best fanfic site?

(Anonymous) 2015-12-06 11:23 pm (UTC)(link)
AO3 has the best formatting, imo, although Tumblr is much better for sheer quantity of response to fic (provided you're in a megafandom.) Tried FF.net, but I think the people who use it skew younger, and they wouldn't let me post my porn anyway.

I don't know why I'd bother with any of the others listed here, honestly.

Re: Question: What do you think is the best fanfic site?

(Anonymous) 2015-12-06 11:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Another factor in FF.net's favor there, no pointless porn.

Not sure if it's the best, but this is always the third place I go to look for fic, after FF.net and AO3.

Wow. It's been ages since I've been to squidge. I'll have to look around later.

(Anonymous) 2015-12-07 12:50 am (UTC)(link)
Actually, to get an idea of what a REALLY bad fanfic site is, perhaps check out AdultFanfiction.net?

As an AUTHOR it's painfully clunky to navigate.
Little to no search ability

(There is also MediaMiner, but I don't know how many people stil use that.)

I like my fanfic hand written and delivered to me on the backs of chickens tbh.

(Anonymous) 2015-12-06 11:21 pm (UTC)(link)
I feel bad for the people who might have left comments to never get a response from you, though. But hey, if that's how you want to roll, then you do you.

(Anonymous) 2015-12-07 12:51 am (UTC)(link)
Mostly I'm just curious why OP chose that pic. It has a very Edwardian vibe.

[personal profile] caerbannog 2015-12-07 07:21 am (UTC)(link)
I do that too, anon. So many sock puppets, slightly more fics. Drive by fic dropping is the best tbh.
