Anyone have a rough summary? I keep my distance from Genshin fandom (apart for a few chill fanartists that I follow) so I'm always a bit out of the loop what the current drama is.

She's popular because her music is incredibly earwormy and she markets herself well, and because music stans, like stans of every other form of media, have always been and will always been rabid as fuck. It really is just that simple.

The weirdest part about some people like this is if you tell them you just write because it's fun and post it in case anybody else wanted to read it, they don't believe you because it's impossible that you can post something and be unconcerned about whether it gets attention. Like some of them literally believe every author feels that way, and the ones that say they don't are lying and secretly thirsting for kudos or whatever.

Coincidentally, the people who do that also tend to not be very good authors, considering the trouble they have imagining things from POVs not their own...

Hard same.

And it doubly grinds my gears when they frame it like "ALL authors want/need/crave validation". No, some of us actually don't, so please stop dragging those of us who are perfectly content in our obscurity into your popularity pissing competition.

I write fic. I’ve only recently gotten back into it after a long, long time of not writing anything.

I am not posting the fic for the comments but it certainly is nice when somebody enjoys what I’ve put out there enough that they take the time to do so and I appreciate it.

(Anonymous) 2024-07-09 10:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, but if they say "I am a desperate little creature and will eat up any crumb of praise" that's like, embarrassing. So it can't be them, it has to be how everyone feels. It's not them, it's the artistic existence!

This one might've been uploaded too late, OP got their wish.

it's hard to explain in a few words. Basically, Tectone and Atsu are enemies from a few years ago. Recently there was a large drama covered by Asmongold even because Atsu didn't like Braxophone and allegedly blocked Braxphone from Genshin's money because he had influece over community management. Tectone jumped on the drama. More recently Atsu wrote a long letter about how he doesn't care about NDA anymore because his wife cheated on him and his streaming took a dive because of the drama. He said that Braxophone had a contract with Genshin all this time so he didn't block him fom any opportunitis.

I can't decide what is worse, the pathetic groveling for comments like the example in the secret, or the guilt-tripping screeds that SOMEONE IS GIVING YOU THEIR LABOR FOR FREE, IF YOU DON'T COMMENT YOU ARE LITERALLY SPITTING IN THEIR FACE AND RIPPING APART THE FAN COMMUNITY

I've made a personal goal to comment more often because I know people appreciate it, but seeing shit like this just makes me want to drop back into permanent lurkdom.

I'm sure that's true for some of her fans. And I get that you're not necessarily talking about her casual fans. But some people just like some of her music and don't relate to her either way on any sort of deep level.

It doesn't help that I regularly see authors screenshot nice comments that they received on their fic and then castigate or make fun of the commenter because it's not the comment they wanted to receive.

(Anonymous) 2024-07-09 10:32 pm (UTC)(link)
How dare you, I didn't write this 5000 word smut fic where all the characters randomly are in love with my fave, and also happen to indulge in every drama plot trope that I personally find interesting and want to write, and also inexplicably ABO werewolves whose kinks coincidentally match mine, for you to not leave a comment. I'm giving you this labor for free!

What do you mean, you never asked for this?
