Re: Should there be more Fanfic sites?

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, probably. But it's hard to build a new site that duplicates existing parts of AO3, becauwe internet communities don't take well to being split across multiple platforms. There's too much network effects. So as long as AO3 is available as an all-in fic platform, it's hard to set something else up and actually get people to use it. Not impossible but hard.

Re: Should there be more Fanfic sites?

[(Anonymous)]

This. I want there to be more fanfic sites, but I also like my fanfic all in one place. Ahh, what a dilemma.

And to be fair, there are a lot of fanfic sites. Just not as big or encompassing as AO3.

Re: Should there be more Fanfic sites?

...I guess what I'd really like is mirror sites. Like me, personally, I don't mind uploading my stuff in multiple locations (and I keep copies on my own computers of all my fics, so it's not like I can't re-upload them to a new site if one goes down), but I'm not sure how many people would find that tedious. Having external mirrors would be great.

Except then there's issues of authorial consent, unless the mirror sites are maintained by the same organization as the site they actually uploaded their fic to, and therefore if AO3 falls out of favor (which is something I do worry about these days) or goes down, probably so do the mirror sites.
