this is the real controversy, actually
the ao3 situation has made me realize too many of you are downloading fics as pdfs?? when epub is clearly the superior option

Found an interesting, if long winded substack that uses the Ao3 downtime happening at the same time of that HP fic being repurposed as a novel as a starting point to talk about the shift of fandom culture from gift economy to a transactional one

i truly think that twitter being the main place that you interact with fandom will inevitably rot your brain and concept of fandom culture regardless of how long you've been in the game
on tumblr, people are participating in a ao3 shutdown fest where ppl write as many things as possible to then post when the site is up and running, and on twt ppl are… well.

combing cream with white. everyone involved in the material production and distribution will never see the gates of heaven.
First look at the Toronto Maple Leafs Hometown Remix jersey, featuring a unique leaf vein pattern in the logo and numbers. Thoughts? #Leafs #PassionNeverSleeps #HometownRemix

people who characterize fanfic writers being self-important as a recent phenomenon: are you folks unfamiliar with cassandra claire and laptopgate?

yes THAT cassandra claire (the 'i' that got removed from her name when she became published is a whole different lore)

all this discourse bringing up anne rice just reminded me that she's literally the source of the "you're interrogating the text from the wrong perspective" meme, which i still whip out an annoying amount.

fic writers are in a legal gray area and the only reason this entire endeavor hasn't been nipped in the bud are generations of fic writers self-imposing guardrails in order to not provoke owners of ip into litigation. chief among that is monetization.
the number of people saying "well fanartists get money for their stuff so fic writers should too" it is against the tos of ao3 to do that!!!! doesn't matter if you think it's unfair, no one can post for comms on ao3!!!

let's take the example of star wars novelizations: if fic writers are earning money, what's stopping disney from shutting down that entire fandom and giving financial competition from stolen ip as justification? do you think the us courts will side with fic writers here?

i'm willing to let go of a lot of fan writer behaviors that give me the ick, but asking for payment over fanfic is a line that's simply uncrossable. to me it's an existential threat to the concept of fandom.

a lot of people in fandom have turned into cops of their own mind and i think that's very sad.
