somniloquence

I have such a hate relationship with Tumblr, for all that I use it pretty much every day--that's where my primary fandom is, so I sort of have to if I want to find meta or gifs or whatever. And I hate Twitter even more, but fortunately I don't feel like I have to be over there. Maybe it would be different if my Twitter wasn't for work, I don't know.

The saddest part for me about the comments and kudos thing in AO3, because I mean, it's great and I no longer have my own website and stuff, but it's that it doesn't really encourage getting to know anyone--you can't private message, so if you want to take a conversation offline you have to work to do it, and that's how I got to know an awful lot of people. We sent each other notes and then took conversations private. And much as I love downloading capabilities, I think that's one reason I get so many of the "why doesn't this amazing story have more kudos and bookmarks?" comments--people DL the big one, or all of them, and they never come back, either because they never get around to reading it or when they did, they didn't care enough to go back and leave something.
