I should be fine, but it's all too much

The Prodigal Son Discord I mentioned a while back now has about 90 different channels, with a very active mod who immediately steps in when they feel conversation should be moved to another channel. (I'm estimating the number of channels. Last time I was there a few months ago I counted 70-something, and they've gotten even more since then but I don't feel like taking the time to count how many more.) With the new season starting Tuesday night, I'm so glad I checked the announcements channel first because current episode talk was now to go into a different new channel, the length of time spoilers of new episodes have to be kept to a single channel has lengthened, and there are more things you have to black out as a trigger warning thing. Like incest, even though a father/son pairing is a huge thing in the fandom. It feels stifling to me.

It also doesn't help that it feels like 95% of the people there didn't engage with anything I posted. Oh wait, one person replying was a mod telling me to move what I was saying at one point from the "current-episode-chat" current episode spoilers channel to the "spoilers/theories" channel. Even though it takes off from something introduced in the current episode. Even though other people wondered about the topic a little earlier in the channel.

It was a pretty happy place for me for several months last year but no longer.

This was my result from the Which Katya Is Your Soulmate and Where Will You Live?????? quiz, and some of it fits:
