People generally don't complain about fandoms not being named when it's a very general issue, like your fics being unpopular, or that one juggernaut pairing creeping in everywhere. Those are pretty universal problems, so people can relate to and discuss them whether you're talking about the issue in the context of Megafandom A or Microfandom Z.

When the vagueing gets irritating is when you're talking about something that's fandom specific - a particular character or fandom dynamic, or plot development, or whatever. At best, there's not enough information to actually have a conversation, and at worst, it comes off as though you're trying to manipulate people into agreeing with you blind by witholding context.

Right, but if it's a secret with details specific to Microfandom Z there's not likely going to be a conversation because it's likely that no one here knows or cares about the fandom/character dynamics specific to Microfandom Z anyways. I have nothing at all to say about whatever drama might be occurring in the Kim Kardashian: Hollywood fandom, and if there was a secret about said drama, we'd all be more likely to leave confused comments about the existence of a fandom for this mobile game and/or general Kardashian critical comments than to "have a conversation" about the secret itself.
