also, the remedy to this feeling of exploitation on the part of authors is to cultivate a fandom community environment where the primary medium of engagement w/ fanworks is not ao3 comments! friends/beta readers reacting, circulating drafts or excerpts on social media, etc
Replying to @employedmeg
ofc i understand where you and other creators are coming from, because that's the logic of social media platforms that function on an attention/influence based economy. but if ao3 is an archive, as it says it is, then you have to respect those norms.

зай, если я узнаю, что кто-то скачал мой несчастный фик и хихикает, перечитывая его под одеялом на даче у бабушки без интернета, я буду счастлива. если ты пишешь ради лайков\внимания, а не, в первую очередь, ради того, что выплеснуть эмоции и фантазии, то соболезную

no hate to op but genuinely none of the people asking this question are old enough/knowledgable in fandom history enough to remember WHY fic drives exist. they’re literally created to avoid fic purges from decimating fundamental texts to the fandoms

Meeting you has become one of the most precious memories of my life💎 I’ve looked up to The Warning for a long time. I love who you are as people, the sound of your instruments, your vocals and harmonies, your performances, and, of course, your music🤘🏻♥️ As a drummer, there are so many things I relate to about you. One of the biggest is that you started playing instruments when you were around the same age I did, and you’ve continued making music and playing in a band for all these years🔥 Even from afar, I’ve followed your journey on social media and watched how hard you’ve worked over the years. I think what you’ve accomplished is truly incredible. You’ve given me so much strength, inspiration, and motivation🥲🙏 You’ve performed in Japan before, and I secretly went to every single one of your shows as a fan🫣 I was so happy when you first came to Japan, and I’m truly grateful that you’ve come back to perform here again🇯🇵🔥🔥 I’ve always had a dream in my heart. Someday, when Ave Mujica and The Warning finally share the stage, I don’t want our first performance together to be in Japan. I want Ave Mujica to travel all the way to Mexico so we can share the stage with you there…!! Because I love and respect you so much, I want to be the one who travels all the way to your home country to meet you and perform alongside you😭🙏 But you came back to Japan before that dream could come true! So next time… I really hope we can make that dream come true!! Please!! 🙏🙏 I truly want Ave Mujica to go to Mexico and share the stage with you🇲🇽 I also want to keep working even harder so that Ave Mujica can go on a world tour someday🌏 Thank you so much for giving me such a precious and unforgettable experience🫶 I will support you and continue to look up to and respect you for the rest of my life❤️🔥

Earlier today, we detected evidence of a security incident on #AO3. We are still in the early stages of investigating. No AO3 data has been deleted. All your works, bookmarks, kudos, etc., are safe. Learn more at otwstatus.org/incidents/g12j…
We estimate that service restoration for #AO3 will take around 2 weeks but it could be up to 4 weeks. We are hopeful that we will be able to bring the site back up in a degraded state sooner. Refer to our status page for updates: otwstatus.org/

in case anyone needs a refresher: you can paste a fics URL into the wayback machine and read it as if you are on AO3. only catch is that newer fics are less likely to be archived.
