Snowflake Challenge 14 and 15

Try something newI considered trying to set up a trading page for sidequest but I noped out when I saw a bunch of php so I'm still not doing any of the TCG stuff yet, even though I like collecting pixels. Someday I'll have the energy to set something up.
Instead I just opened up the Cambio Fude that I bought in Japan and tried it out for the first time. It's actually an amazing pen. The ink flow is great and completely wasted on me, who has ass handwriting no matter the language. But I'm working on it...
Challenge #15
Fandom Snowflake Challenge's 2023 Fandom Wrapped!
Your top 5 fandoms for 2023 were:
- Overwatch League by a long shot
- Honkai Starrail slipped into second starting at the end of the year
- Well behind that is probably Whyborne and Griffin just because the fandom is very small
- Visual Novels generally, though I don't actively participate in any fandom culture around them
- Divinity: Original Sin II ... which again, really enjoyed the game but didn't really touch the fandom.
Your top 5 fandom spaces (Discord, Twitter, etc.) in 2023 were:
- Dreamwidth, which has been a deliberate choice. I feel like I finally accomplished feeling settled here last year.
- Tumblr, still my favorite of the "socials"
- Reddit, though with OWL dead my site use is dropping off a lot.
- Twitter, because I still don't know a better place for fanart
- Discord. I'm not active in many fandom discords but I do have friends discords that I spend a lot of time in.
The top 5 things you did to contribute to fandom in 2023 were:
- I wrote 2 whole ficlets for fandom giftbox/trees lol.
- A bunch of VN reviews?
- Honestly I'm a fandom consumer, not a maker.
Your top 5 most appreciated fandom contributions were:
- Leaving genuinely thankful and enthusiastic comments on fic?
- Again, I'm just chilling here, I contribute by trying not to be an asshole.
