All of this! I'm in Doctor Who fandom which has been in existence for almost 50 years, and I only got into the show 2 years ago. It's a massive fandom with people who've been in it literally their entire lives. But, you find your place, your little corner, and make friends within that. Some of the most well-known people in my circle of fandom friends are people who don't write fic and don't do fan art, but what they do do is really encourage others who do those things. They leave comments on fic, they help sponsor ficathons, they leave comments on fanart and vids and encourage the creators, they beta-read, the start memes, they do reaction/squee posts, they keep rec lists. The internet is an interactive venue (hence the name) so no one is going to see you off in the corner. On the internet, if you remain silent, you don't exist. Not because people are mean but because people literally can't see you unless you talk. And if you only talk a little, people aren't going to remember you name. It probably takes someone seeing your name out there ten or twenty times before it'll be remembered. Again, not because people are mean but just because there's a lot of names out there in fandom and no one remembers every single one they come across.

If I can join a fandom that's been around much longer than I've been alive, you can join a newish fandom that's already gotten off the ground. You just have to speak up and make yourself seen. What it takes is just remembering that you *do* have something to contribute. Everyone does.
