possibly controversial opinion ?
for any romance fans, but specifically bl/yaoi, how do you think tiktok affects your reading experience/ community experience.
I just got done reading the most recent chap of Hounds of Sisyphus, and the comments were actually boiling my blood. It's full of people jumping to conclusions, calling it toxic, calling guwon a red flag, etc etc, as if we haven't barely started the story.
ive found that on very popular stories that skyrocketed from tiktok, have readers that don't understand nuance and grey area. hell not to bring up the pornhwa, Mr A's Farm, but it has the SAME THING in a way. not in the same way but, in the sense that it has people THAT DONT THINK in the comments section.
I love jokes, theories, and opinions in the comment section, but ehen its the same comment over and over again its really really annoying.
I also can't stand people constantly complaining in a comment section like with JINX. like ik its a terrible story. but filling up the comment section with "wow this is ass" doesnt do ANYTHING like i want to see people discussing the content rather than outright complaining.
It's like the joke "woke-joshi" and "trad-joshi" you can't read anything new and popular without seeing condemnation over the author and readers moral character I the comments section over the one of the most semi morally grey tamest story ever
also pls pls pls don't feel called out from this lol I get tons of my recs from tiktok, I just wanted to rant and ask others their opinions.
p.p.s pls don't be mad at me im sensitive (。・´д`・。)
