(this was a while ago and I didn't post it for like- ages.)
heard someone say archive of our own should install a "dislike" button and I thought I should say this: no, there's absolutely no need for archive of our own to install a "dislike" button.
why? because archive of our own isn't tiktok or youtube or twitter/x where users can monetize their content. archive of our own is a nonprofit site run by fans for fans, which means every content — every fanfic — you see on archive of our own was made out of pure love and passion from the artists/authors.
ao3 authors write because writing about these characters is their happiness and passion. they write for themselves, but they were generous enough to share with you their creations.
they're not "content creators" the way tiktokers or youtubers or instagram models are. they don't "make content" for views and engagements that can be monetized.
so no, you don't get to "grade their works" unless they specifically and directly ask you to.
you don't get to "say what you dislike about their works" unless they specifically and directly ask you to.
you don't get to "dislike" works that are not made specifically to please you in the first place. you're just a guest in someone's house, a house in which they let you in because they were kind, you don't get to roam around their house and say what you dislike about their furniture. you don't get to roam around their house and say you "dislike their house".
of course, you can have your opinion about the house its host invites you in. but if it's a negative one and you find yourself not liking the house, the polite things for you to do is excuse yourself and leave without telling them you dislike their house.
and just because you personally dislike the house doesn't mean the house is "ugly" either. the house you dislike could be a favorite, most luxurious place to many others.
my point is, don't be entitled by wanting the rights to voice your disapproval of things that you get to enjoy for free. don't be entitled by wanting the rights to voice your disapproval of things that were made out of love and passion — things the artists made for themselves for fun.
it makes you look like an entitled jerk with main character syndrome. the universe does not revolve around you.
now repeat after me: don't like don't read. no one forces you to continue reading a fic you don't like. quietly leave instead of being rude to authors who write for free because writing is their source of comfort.
people are so used to contents that were made because it's a trend / contents like tiktok that were made with the main purpose of reaching high engagement and making profits that they forget sometimes things can be made out of love and be made just for fun. sometimes things are supposed to just be for people to enjoy, and if some people don't enjoy them, then they can simply leave without being unnecessary unkind.
Is it just me or are the new tumblr users convinced there's a penalty of some kind for using this site like it's meant to be used?

I've said it before and I'll say it again, just because the old version of Abysstale is canceled doesn't mean it has to be a part of it.
I know this was my first Undertale fan comic since Undertale started a long time ago.
I didn't like the old Abysstale because it was messy, disorganized, and make no sense.
I said that the old Abysstale and the new Abysstale are not the same thing, that is, separate.
I made a mistake by saying that wasn't very clear.
What I mean is that the new Abysstale is a remake of the old Abysstale. Something that was supposed to make more sense of the story and characters.
Which means you shouldn't take the old version of Abysstale seriously, as if it were part of it. It isn't.
I've seen people downloads my old version of Abysstale to another site without my permission. I'm not okay with that.
I understand that you want people to see the first old version of Abysstale.
But at the end of the day, I'm still the creator of old and new Abysstale comics.
I've deleted all the pages from the old version was because it can create more confusion and people who don't know much about it might take this story seriously and then be more confused about the story suddenly becoming different from the other version.
You can still enjoy the old version of Abysstale. But keep in mind that the old Abysstale shouldn't be taken as canon. New Abysstale is the canon story.
