(Anonymous) 2020-09-24 11:09 pm (UTC)(link)But actually, one of the things that's great about being in huge fandoms is that there's usually quite a lot of sensitive, nuanced, complex explorations of characters and ships, simply by virtue of the fact that there's way more fic period. Because if only say 0.5% of fanfic is really exceptional, 0.5% of 40K fics is 200, whereas 0.5% of 4K fics is only 20.
My desire for sensitive, nuanced, complex explorations of characters and ships was fairly well satisfied during my seven years in the Sherlock fandom, and my 5 years in the X-Files fandom, because they were huge fandoms. Sure there was tons of badfic and meh fic. But the tiny percentage of fics that were really exceptional were more than enough to be getting on with.
