I feel increasingly like recommendations in general are just way harder and less useful than we tend to assume

or maybe I'm just overly picky and weird

#3 drives me nuts. I'm not sure people realize how presumptuous and arrogant it is to say, "Oh hey, I know you specifically said you did NOT want X but here's a whole bunch of X!"

It's like they have this basic lack of comprehension that the things they love aren't universally loved AND THAT'S JUST FINE. There's no need to "fix" that for other people or shove your faves at someone who said upfront they're not interested.

Ooof, yeah I feel you. Tbh I've never had much of an issue just looking through the tags for something and finding what I'm after, though sometimes I might ask around for a general sense of where to start if I want something specific.

But otherwise yeah, I'll never really ask for recs because I know what I like and I'm not 100% that another person will be able to fully take my likes/dislikes into account.

That's irritating, I feel for you. I don't rec often but I usually take people at their word if they request it not to include certain themes or pairings.

Yeah, I just prefer recs list that I can browse. I rarely ask anyone for recs.

I do ask if some epic-length thing is good, though.

I've gotten some amazing recs off people in this comm, but yes - there is always that one utter jerkwad who wants you to read what you DO NOT WANT to read.

People have terrible taste, it's true. Ask for something in character, and you get recced the worst OOC mess you can imagine.

I never ask for rec's since I have really specific tastes, and a bad habit of binging every fic I can find anyways.
