I don't know what you mean by "mainstream as ever". More mainstream than it's ever been? Yes, perhaps. But that's only relatively speaking. I wouldn't call fandom mainstream by a long shot. It's one thing to enthuse with a co-worker about [random tv show] over your lunch break, but that's a fairly light participation in fandom. You try telling acquaintances in non-fandom spaces about your John/Sherlock slashfic exchange or admitting that you spent $100 on Funko Pop figures and you'll soon discover that it's a lot less mainstream than you think.

I would say that the basic concept of "shipping" and fandom built around shipping is fairly entrenched as part of pop culture at this point. IDK
