There are aspects of fandom that are worse, but also I really appreciate that you don't get kicked out of fandom spaces for liking gay ships nowadays, YEAH. I think that there are a lot of things that are cyclical, like the things that are worse right now aren't new, are not due to tumblr, they're just some of the things that were also a problem in the lj days, in the mailing list days...

The only real new problem is access to creators being so much more, and the things that come with that-- entitlement for some, or showing creators fanworks that they do not need to be shown for others (or asking about rpf, good lord). Every other issue that I find annoying, I recognize as just a new wave of the same old shit people did back then too. Like, yes, there are some etiquette breakdowns, there are influxes of new fans who don't necessarily know how to behave in fan spaces, and some of them might not want to learn because the people they see complaining are 'too old' to have fun, but like... there were plenty of fan spaces back in the day that did not prize etiquette as a rule! And the generation thing is not new.
