And ten years ago, people were complaining about how authors would churn out chapter after chapter of fics where nothing happened at great length (except the characters thinking about their super secret feelings for each other).

The one constant of fandom (especially internet fandom) is that there is always complaining about people Doing Fandom Wrong.

There are still too many chaptered fics like that. I dislike both short fluffy fics and pointless longfics.

I'm sure there have always been some complaints about both extremes. People just want to read good writing? Complaining about trends is not the same as policing. And you can't pretend the culture is the same as it's always been. As fandom has become more mainstream, and the internet in general has changed, fandom has definitely shifted into a more casual low-effort atmosphere. And yes, there has always been badfic, but I can absolutely proclaim that it's harder to avoid than ever before.

I feel like there's a point to be made for tastes being changed and refined over time, but at the same time, OMG, so much more short badfic. AUGH. (At least I can filter out shit that's less than like, 1500 words, knowing that I am missing virtually nothing valuable.)
