I do miss the good ol' LJ days. It's a ghost town in these parts, but I do come back every now and then to scream into the void ;)
I'm most active on Tumblr (thrud-of-asgard) these days (I do follow you over there). It's real easy to scroll through and it gives me a sensible chuckle every now and then.
I'm currently in The Boys fandom at the moment. Starting a new fic for the first time 9 years. Finally finished Sun Kissed after a whopping 16 years jesusfuckingchrist.
Oh wow, congratulations on getting finished; that’s an amazing achievement!
I do miss LJ - I think reading fic on AO3 is better than reading on LJ for sure and that is about 80% of what I do in fandom, but there’s nowhere I’ve found matches LJ for the other 20% of reccing and squeeing! Where can we go to squee?! 🤣
AO3 is the only good thing that came out of Strikethrough 2007. It is SUCH a great archive.
LJ is good for Recs and squeeing, I agree. Even if you try and look for them on Tumblr they're hard to find and the tags on that site are barely functional sometimes.
I did create a Dreamwidth backup just in case anything happened to LJ.
