(Anonymous) 2021-12-09 08:46 pm (UTC)(link)However according to someone who actually does stats well, the top 10 fandoms on AO3 in number of fanworks only has ONE RPF fandom in it (BTS, at #7). The other 9 are all fictional: https://archiveofourown.org/works/29249172. Granted this is almost a year old, but I don't think it's changed that dramatically.
It does go to show how little RPF is on my radar. I just don't care about it at all so I haven't paid much attention.

(Anonymous) 2021-12-10 08:40 am (UTC)(link)Also, according to the stats in your link, "K-POP" and "Real Person Fiction" are the 3rd and 4th most popular fandom tags. I suppose the most popular pairings and top fandoms/pairings statistics don't properly reflect that, because RPF isn't tied to any one specific fandom, but can be found across nearly all fandoms. In other words: an RPF fic of Tom Hiddlestone/Chris Hemsworth will likely still be tagged as "Marvel" fandom and therefore contribute to the Marvel fandom numbers, and might not even be tagged as "RPF".
