I don't know. I get that some people will go on long-winded so-called "meta" analyses that are really just gigantic manifestos for their favorite/most hated character/ships. And yeah, that can get old, but I just scroll past. The rest of the time, I really, really love meta. I can't help but have critical analysis reactions to media I consume; that part of my brain no longer shuts up.

So that's how I like to engage in fandom. I get enthusiastic about a thought, or I see a gap in the discussion, and I want to share my thought or fill that gap and have conversations about it.

I'm sure some people do meta to "seem smart," in exactly the same way some people do fic or art just for the positive feedback instead of for the enjoyment of creating, and some do it for both, but I don't find it any more inherently pretentious than "serious" ficcers or artists.
