Maybe the real life associations are partially to blame.

There is some inherent distance between The Social Network and real life events and people due to dramatic license and fic tends to take it a little further away, so there's always been a divide there. But the association of it to the real Facebook and Mark Zuckerberg is there and, given the last few years, I could see how enthusiasm could be dampened just by that, no matter how much disconnection there is.

I was in TSN fandom and loved it at the time, and I was very comfortable with the fact that the characters were fictionalized versions of real people...and despite all that, thinking about Facebook and Mark Zuckerberg now just makes me feel angry and sad now. There's no way for me to ignore those negative feelings and recapture the joy the fandom once gave me.
