Yeah, some of them are comments on the fic that were like "well, this isn't (pair), but I gave it a chance anyway and it's good (and so on).

It is frustrating, but just putting it out there helped.

oooof bigtime. the shitty backhanded compliment. fandom collectively needs to shed that habit - it's not actually a compliment if you say "well it would have been better if..."

no. those people are shitty and that's not how you praise something you liked. at the worst I will accept "I'm not usually into X/Y but that was great" because it sounds more like someone genuinely isn't into your pairing or your fandom but tried it and liked it because you're just that good. that's a compliment.

I feel you that it's harder to call out that sort of shit in smaller fandoms or small rarepair circles. what can you do besides grit your teeth and save the eye-rolling for behind their backs.
