Yup, that is the AO3 vibe. It is awful.

(Anonymous) 2022-03-11 11:27 pm (UTC)(link)
This is definitely fandom-specific and not platform-specific.

(Anonymous) 2022-03-12 12:15 am (UTC)(link)
Agreed. I haven't seen this in any of my fandoms (or maybe I'm just not looking in the right places).

(Anonymous) 2022-03-12 12:42 am (UTC)(link)
+10000000 Haven't seen it in my fandoms either. I don't doubt that it's out there, but as you say, it's highly fandom specific.

(Anonymous) 2022-03-12 12:54 am (UTC)(link)
ikr I'm in about 4 fandoms right now and none of them have tried to pull this BS - so I don't think this particular experience is universal either.

Same here, but that's a big duh since I've noted I mostly write/read in medieval fantasy canons, heh.

I haven't had that experience on A03, probably because my fandoms skew older. I agree with the sentiment, but this isn't a new phenomenon. I remember people co-opting real-life tragedies into their fandoms on LJ.

So many Twin Towers fics. I don't mean LotR either.

I was on a fic mailing list back in the day (Outside the Lines on the off chance anyone remembers it) which actually imposed a moratorium on 9/11 fic in the immediate aftermath. At the time teen!me I thought it was silly, but now I'm glad the mods had the sense to do it.

Same here. And yes, I remember it happening a lot decades ago (I'm a fandom oldbie, sue me).

OP

(Anonymous) 2022-03-12 12:20 am (UTC)(link)
nah fam it's not ~the AO3 vibe~ it's the more oblivious and self-centered among my specific fandom vibe

(Anonymous) 2022-03-12 07:14 am (UTC)(link)
This.

(Anonymous) 2022-03-12 07:15 am (UTC)(link)
Let me guess, you’re the anon who has it out for AO3 to the point where they use any opportunity to try to make it known how much you hate it.
