FFN: "we suck the best! we only have character tags, and only up to four"
AO3: "watch me" [proceeds to remove All Media Types]
Oh God, the ads mid-text! WTF?!
Visiting FFnet for the first time in years to try and get my fix.
... Ugh, AO3 needs to come back soon! 😩
You know, back in the day, when fanfiction dot net was still the main fanfiction site, when it was down, people would just post their new fics/chapters on LJ. Good times...

In FF.net, update your fic summary to mention Ash. Something like, for example, for "Dangerous Upgrade":
"Witnessing hints that the safeguards of the multiverse are breaking, Gamañel faces the Voice of Life in a surprise meeting, the two parties accusing each other of turning the world of Gates to Ash."
(Not my idea, but can't remember the exact community I got it from)
