The tragedy of getting an email that isn't from AO3, like how dare you

you don't need an AO3 app - round 2!!!

"AO3 is ugly and I hate the formatting!" -> you can download site skins. very gorgeous ones. and you can use them to change the aesthetics and visuals of AO3. just search 'AO3 skin' on Tumblr or even on google and you will be in A Whole New World. (and those searches should yeild tutorials on how to install the skins as well - it's not something I know a lot about, because I used to primarily use Quizilla and FFN, so I am more than used to Ugly Website. AO3 is very aesthetic and pretty compared to those.)

"AO3 is too bright!!! it hurts my eyes!!!" -> there is a dark mode. scroll down to the bottom. there is a heading that says 'customize'. under this heading, hit the button that says 'reversi'. that is their version of dark mode. and again, you can look for site skins that you like that have a darker background.

"I want to be able to make reading lists!" -> you can make bookmark collections on AO3. In your bookmarks, there is a button that says 'add to collection' beside each work. have fun. go ham. (Also, you can make private bookmarks if you are reading something with more controversial content that you don't really want others to know about - and please know, that any bookmark comments you make on public bookmarks can be seen by the author.)

(this last one made me laugh - because it seems like people are just coming up with bullshit excuses to 'need' an AO3 app when there is literally nothing that an app can go that AO3 can't.)

"my memory is really bad because of reasons sooo I remember to use things better by having them on my homescreen like an app!!!" -> create an AO3 shortcut on your homescreen. most mobile browsers have the capability to put a shortcut to a specific link or a specific website on your homescreen so that you can go straight there - like you would with opening an app. and it can be labelled 'the AO3 app' while simply having the icon of that browser. you can even do this with a link to a specific fic that you are in the process of reading (even down to the specific chapter that you were on). there is literally 0 reasons to have or use an AO3 app.

and remember kids!!! any and all apps with AO3 in their title are not associated with the real archiveofourown in any way, shape, or form - they are unofficial, and technically, they are illegal. and using them is putting all fanficition writers at risk legally (even if there is no active lawsuits right now) - just don't fucking use them. it is a threat to the entire fanfiction hobby just because you want 'the app experience'.

the archive is a non-profit website with 0 ads for a reason, and those apps are scummy scammers who put ads on our stories to make fast easy money when none of the people who made those stories ever consented to it.

It's not enough to just follow or subscribe to my favourite writers. I need to crawl around their thoughts like a curious little bug.

#u ever just find an writer in the wild and fall in literary love w them????#like its not even a “tell me ur secrets” thing but a “wow i need to see how ur brain works”#ill never like reach out n be like hi i love u but ill admire from afar until they notice my impeccable vibes n come closer to check it out #writers on ao3 #writers on tumblr

LU Writer Appreciation Project 2023

hosted by @seekingseven (love yoouu!!)

My second gift for @lyrabythelake based on their fanfic Lifting The Fog

Ahhh I am such a huge fan for whump fics and this one definitely kept me reading all the way to the end. I love the sense of urgency in this with the dangerous terrain that was not doing them any favors.

#sorry seeking I hope you do mind all the pings!#lyra i kept this fic in my back pocket #enjoy!#clorieden #linkeduniverse #linked universe #linked universe discord #fanfic #fanfiction #ao3 #luwap #luwap 2023 #lu legend #lu wild #lu twilight #lu time #whump

been thinking a lot about how ashamed i used to be for using ao3 and tumblr. but like ao3 survives solely off of user support and dedication to fandom, that shits beautiful.

i have. a question

#the first fic poll brought this to mind because tokio hotel was a Big Deal on very early quizlet.nl #(before justin bieber came on the scene. followed closely by one direction. followed by a slow website death)#i wouldn't be very surprised if there's a decently sized young crowd even in my exact part of the world for whom this is Too Old #which is. wild. but in general i've just always wondered if they. you know. broke containment at all #did this leave europe?? god i should look at fic numbers on ao3 maybe. hm.#*

Somebody say Link with the aspect on the frostbite set?

So reading this again and with the stuff of Athena saying to Wild “I have had no fewer than three fathers and seven mothers come up to me and enquire as to whether you would be interested in marrying their daughters.” make me do this bcs he's so gorgeous in his set and everyone notice it of course.

Ideth have taste.

Read this on @tashacee AO3!!

Also, sorry for, being dead, life is a road and I'm out of gasoline.
