I wonder if most of current active fandom came along after AO3 and just never had to deal with entire libraries of fic disappearing overnight without warning.

Actually, the reason I've been so slow to get in the habit of DLing fics is the opposite of what you suggest: In all of my pre-AO3 fandoms, I basically never came across a fic I couldn't find somewhere, whether on a little hole-in-the-wall archive somewhere, or via the Wayback Machine (or on a little hole-in-the-wall archive accessed via the Wayback Machine).

But these days, most people in the fandoms I'm in post exclusively to AO3, and anybody who recs their fic links to AO3, and Wayback is not a reliable way to access a deleted AO3 fic. So actually, it's the way that people tend to use AO3 as the singular upload location that has made DLing so much more important to do--at least in the fandoms I'm in.

(This is not intended to cast any shade on AO3, which I adore immoderately and am very grateful for.)
