“Kazul’s not my dragon.“ Cimorene said sharply. “I’m her princess. You’ll never have any luck dealing with dragons if you don’t get these things straight.”

“but AO3 *wants* writers on their platform, writers are providing a service for them, that’s how they get content.”

no, they are PROVIDING you a platform. for your content. as a service to you.

please, please, please learn how the internet works.

the companies that WANT you on the platform are the companies that are SELLING YOU TO ADVERTISERS.

*Facebook* wants you on their platform. *Tumblr* wants you on their platform. *FF.net* wants you on their platform. You are Facebook’s product. Facebook is not a service to you. It is an incentive for you to give them eyes and data to sell. And the second your eyes and data stop being profitable they will toss you under the bus.

That’s why fans made AO3. So we had a space that was ours, that wasn’t profiting off of us, so we wouldn’t get sold out.
