Wattpad Purge?

As some of you might be aware, Wattpad is currently undergoing a purge. TLDR; there's an AI bot that flags content for review, people's stories are being shadow-banned or deleted. Moving to ao3 is highly encouraged.

If you want more information I highly recommend the Mega-thread on Reddit. Here's an accompanying thread on transitioning to ao3 for new users, and an excellent tumblr post on the same topic.

what i would like to know is where are the #bipoc and #lgbtqia+ authors going? no one caters to us. we're minorities wherever we go. we're underrepresented unless we're the select few who get a shoutout during a heritage/history month or pride. we're always lost amongst the crowds. so purges like this really suck and are exhausting and many writers quit after them, not wanting to put in more work on another unknown platform that we aren't sure will even help us be seen.

Me, an ancient millenial watching another fanficition purge:

In the spirit of encouraging people to comment on fanfics while also making it easier to do so, I feel obliged to share a browser extension for ao3 that has quite literally revolutionized the comment game for me.

I present to you: the floating ao3 comment box!

From what I've seen, a big problem for many people is that once you reach the comments at the bottom of a fic, your memory of it miraculously disappears. Anything you wanted to say is stuck ten paragraphs ago, and you barely remember what you thought while reading. This fixes that!

I'll give a little explanation on the features and how it works, but if you want to skip all that, here's the link.

The extension is visible as a small blue box in the upper left corner.

(Side note: The green colouring is not from the extension, that's me.)

If you click on it, you open a comment box window at the bottom of your screen but not at the bottom of the fic. I opened my own fic for demonstrative purposes.

The website also gives explanations on how exactly it functions, but I'll summarize regardless.

insert selection -> if you highlight a sentence in the fic it will be added in italics to the comment box

add to comment box -> once you're done writing your comment, you click this button and the entire thing will automatically copied to the ao3 comment box

delete -> self explanatory

on mulitchapter fics, you will be given the option to either add the comment to just the current chapter or the entire fic

The best part? You can simply close the window the same way you opened it and your progress will automatically be saved. So you can open it, comment on a paragraph, and then close it and keep reading without having the box in your face.

Comments are what keep writers going, and as both a writer and a reader, I think it's such an easy way of showing support and enthusiasm.

In honor of Aaliyah's 45th birthday, I announce that a small part of Capricorn is now available on Amazon! It's not the full book, hopefully, one day, but it is sort of a spin-off book that will make you feel like her character and is based on Capricorn. And it's under $10! Please help a fellow black writer out and support. You can also donate whatever on Cash App to the username $Btrflie. I hope to do this with all the Zodiac books and others. Thanks for the continued reads of Capricorn! Here's the Amazon link to see all about it. RIP BABYGIRL ️and thank you for being the inspiration for not only this story but the entire series! 🕊️😇

Is it just me, or are there less comments being written on fics nowadays? I get to a fic on AO3 that was posted weeks ago, and it has like 30 kudos but no comments yet. It happens more and more now. Why is that?

I don't like it.
