Fandom trends you hate

[(Anonymous)]

I'm more interested in the mundane ones.

Re: Fandom trends you hate

[(Anonymous)]

I don't hate them, but aesthetic posts do nothing for me, and I don't really understand their ubiquity.

ABO. It combines so many of my squicks and it's so popular. It's not that big a deal since it's usually tagged and I can avoid it but I do have a little 'ewgross' reaction whenever I see it.

Re: Fandom trends you hate

Same. It's no biggie if it's tagged because I can skip it and I'm not gonna rain on anybody's ABO parade, but it's squicky for me.

Re: Fandom trends you hate

[(Anonymous)]

That one does tend to crop up everywhere. I can see how that would be annoying if it was a squick.

This. I actually like some of the biological parts of it. But the genetic submissiveness/dominance is something I loath. If there were more dominant omegas and submissive alphas, I'd be way more into it.

Re: Fandom trends you hate

[greenvelvetcake]

I just don't understand why it's as popular as it is. Every fandom, it seems, has a little corner of ABO in it.

Re: Fandom trends you hate

[ninety6tears]

Those imagine blogs. You'd think they'd be easily avoidable but those posts end up trending in a lot of tags.

Re: Fandom trends you hate

[kaijinscendre]

OMG yes! I am so sick of having to delete them from my feed because I follow stuff like Steve Rogers on Tumblr.

Tagging

I hate having to analyze my fic to try to figure out what it needs to be tagged as. I just want pairing/characters and the most basic warnings. I also don't like tagging on tumblr either.

Re: Fandom trends you hate

[(Anonymous)]

You don't have to, though.

Re: Fandom trends you hate

[(Anonymous)]

I like tagging to an extent, but I always roll my eyes when I come across a fic where the tags easily take up like, half a page.

Re: Fandom trends you hate

[(Anonymous)]

Basic warnings and pairing/characters is enough for me. If I need more and don't know what to add, I usually ask my beta how she would tag this. Has helped me a lot, and so far nobody's complained.

Re: Fandom trends you hate

gifsets that are this bright, BRIGHT pale beige that have maybe a corner of something from the movie on them and I never know what they are until I read the tags.

It'll be a gifset of, oh, Star Wars and the first image is some flashing horizontal lights like ... sure?

Re: Fandom trends you hate

[kaijinscendre]

When fandoms seemingly decide one character as a bottom (generally based on size, personality, or both) and then 90% of fic has that character as a bottom.

Re: Fandom trends you hate

[(Anonymous)]

Oh god, this! It's so damn irritating.

Re: Fandom trends you hate

[(Anonymous)]

Hating on fujoshi. I'm not even into BL and it's grating.

Re: Fandom trends you hate

[(Anonymous)]

Trope subversion

This may only be a trend in my particular fandom but it's there. I like the tropes as they are. I don't want subversions.

Re: Fandom trends you hate

[junee]

Tagging completely unrelated posts with a character/actor just because a .gif featuring them was used.

Emilia Clarke as Daenerys seeming to be the default face claim for Sigyn.

Re: Fandom trends you hate

[mrs_don_draper]

Black and white gifs of shows/movies that are in color.

Black and white gifs of moments from shows/movies that aren't sad/painful scenes.

Re: Fandom trends you hate

[(Anonymous)]

People tagging things that have nothing to do with the thing. Like I get that you love X character in Y fandom, but that doesn't mean that you need to tag them as A, B, and C character just to get more views/notes/reblogs. People that do this enough, I usually just end up blocking.

Re: Fandom trends you hate

[(Anonymous)]

More of an unintentional trend than anything, but when I'm looking on AO3 for pairing C/D, I don't want to see a huge ass lists of A/B fics with a side of C/D (that usually ends up being a snippet or too, if even that).

For specifics, find fic for F/F pairings is hard enough as it fucking is, so many writers need to stop tagging F/F pairings as a side pairing to their long-ass M/M stuff. God I fucking hate that.

Re: Fandom trends you hate

[feotakahari]

When murderous nutjob villains turn into blushing ukes in fic. Could someone please explain to me why the guy who liquefies people with his mind is suddenly wearing a maid costume?

Re: Fandom trends you hate

[(Anonymous)]

I'm not a fan of that thing where people compare two (usually female) characters from two different fandoms and draw parallels. I don't know why... I've got nothing against comparisons specifically, it's just that I've seen some that seemed like a reach and I don't think it's that remarkable.

Re: Fandom trends you hate

[philstar22]

Making everything dark and edgy. Well, more of a media trend, but fandom does it too. And I'm still bitter and angry about Man of Steel. Every time I see that version of Superman I'm angry all over again. That is not my Clark. That is just wrong.
