I am genuinely baffled by the current discourse because 1) the download button has been there forever and 2) both epub and pdf version not only give author full credit but link to the original work in the file.

sabe o que é mais engraçado? o ao3 foi literalmente o responsável em dar segurança jurídica para os escritores de fanfic! lá no inicio dos nos 2000 a anne rice vivia processando quem fazia fanfic de iwtv e a fanfiction..net imediatamente deletava e haviam categorias de fandoms q eram banidas para evitar essa confusão com autores chatos. existe literalmente todo um braço jurídico pra manter A SUA FANFIC NO AR que trabalha sem fins lucrativos e vive de doações para manutenção. quer ter domínio sobre sua obra de personagens que sequer te pertencem? crie seu próprio repositório e responda seus b.o s

do the people who are reporting drives with fics under "intellectual property infringement" and shit realise that the fan fiction is actually intellectual property infringement? you don't own that universe or the characters, they could sue you lmfao

[vi @stargeyama]

@svonazor right, guy never know how people live

[vi @stargeyama]

@aloeralore ive managed to get 0 comments but there will always be atleast 1 kudos

hyung kink is the bestt thing ab older bottom younger top dude. the younger pounding relentlessly into the older while looking desperately at their face going "hyung, does that feel good? tell me i'm doing well, hyung" meanwhile their hyung can't even form a coherent word anymore

[sena Ი𐑼 @airabuun]

This whole thing just shows how a lot of people in fandom are ONLY active in these circles because of the attention they can extract for themselves.
They don’t actually make fanworks as passion projects, but as a way to accrue clout and an “audience”.

[vi @stargeyama]

you guys are so insufferable. the point of fanfics is to be read by fans. it's a fan fiction, you're literally using the intellectual property of the original fiction. imagine if all these media owners decided to sue or report ao3 authors

[Sticky_Rice94🔞 @Sticky_Rice94]

Download my fics & store them in a folder like you’re hoarding for the apocalypse. Print my fics & show your coworkers in the break room. Read my fics out loud for your YT channel. Bind my fics into a pretty book for your personal library. As long as someone’s reading I’m happy💜

[vi @stargeyama]

see if engagement of fics was monetary and it was making some people's livelihood like manhwas do then i'd understand why you'd be so hurt. but if you see your fic in someone's drive being shared shouldn't you be happy? like that's also a form of engagement

[atlas @pittilingos]

hasta que no veáis AO3 como lo que realmente es; un archivo, no seréis felices. Da igual cuantos hits, kudos, comentarios tenga tu fanfic, si tu decides ponerlo ahí es porque deseas que se conserve en el tiempo, no hacerte microcelebrity.

[vi @stargeyama]

if i found my fic on one of the drives id be thrilled that i finally made it

[diana ✨ @bigmelodrama]

people are mad that their works are being shared around meanwhile i'm happy that someone cares enough to archive my stories 😭

[vi @stargeyama]

if i found one of my fics on these drives i'd be over the moon. like omg i finally made it

[diana ✨ @bigmelodrama]

[vi @stargeyama]

its okay big guy, i'll wait 4 weeks for ao3 to come. i don't want to read your heavily censored slop even if it's ad free for like 48 hours

[Wattpad @wattpad]

ao3 user or not, enjoy ad free reading on Wattpad from now until 11:59PM ET on Sunday

[vi @stargeyama]

we've given you guys too many chances. remove the ads, weirdass guidlines and pay walls then we'll consider it

[Wattpad @wattpad]

people will get back with their toxic exes hundreds of times but won't give the orange fanfic app another chance

[vi @stargeyama]

@addinavi as long as people don't sell your works or show them to the people involved there really shouldn't be a problem

[Pregnant Shane @addinavi]

I’m sorry but acting like people are stealing from you for downloading fics are insane. If you’re a real fanfic writer, you’re in it for the love of the game and you’re not policing how people are enjoying your writing. If you’re in it for the kudos, this isn’t the hobby for you.

[vi @stargeyama]

@DepravedHomo queer people who read queer media aren't fetishizing them, we just read queer media of all kinds. why don't men who watch lesbian porn or men who read yuri face the same hate that women do?

[vi @stargeyama]

yeah let's all hate on lesbians because everything a woman does always has to some how result in her wanting to fuck a man. everything is about men isnt it

[kitany @tlatinxwarrior]

@gulabjasmin and i see a lot of fujoshis say they're lesbians i mean maybe some of them are but i feel a lot of them are fake lesbians honestly

[vi @stargeyama]

@featherlylight_ engagement is necessary but there are many authors who write solely for the purpose of getting hits and kudos

[vi @stargeyama]

i completely agree but when the site is down authors aren't getting engagement either way so isn't it better to have your work shared and obviously people should go back and kudos the fics they liked once the site is back on

[eva 🌻 @featherlylight_]

i'll never understand why some people treat writers like money-hungry influencers

god forbid someone wanted some form of acknowledgment for the hours they've spent working on something. people forget writing is a lonely hobby, and if you receive silence, it's just not worth it

[dea 𓆈 @ch8rileon]

god please take all of ao3’s maintenance issues & give it to chatgpt

[vi @stargeyama]

@nikitasocom i didn't realise I can't even enjoy music made by men without being male centered. i don't know these men, it's not like going around saying these men can do nothing wrong or that I have emotional/ romantic feelings for them. i just enjoy their songs and shit damn

[vi @stargeyama]

wow so just because I like how a guy sounds and looks suddenly I'm not a misandrist? god forbid i like a man who can sing and dance. also, i don't know any of these guys personally it's not like I'm gunna date them or some shit

[veilleuse @nikitasocom]

@gulabjasmin Also not a real misandrist sorry not sorry 🥹
