Rainy is a worthless otaku

Because when I hear someone say "This person is problematic!!!" My first thought is "Okay did this person say something bigoted like 7 years ago and hasn't done it since? Did this person do something fucking stupid and edgy when they were a teenager? Was this person a bitch to an ex friend like 10 years ago? Does this person just like or write about an edgy ship?? Have they apologized and have proved that they haven't done stupid asshole shit since??"

"Or is this actually a super problematic thing like like they're fucking pedophile, a domestic abuser, or someone like JK Rowling where due to the sucess of their creative work they are actively using their fame and wealth to fund a genocide of a minority group?"

“what’s the tea?” wattpad is pro censorship and driven mainly by capitalism, any work that is taboo and work that is just “smut without plot” is considered against wattpad’s rules and it can get removed if someone reports it to wattpad.

wattpad is also literally full of ads. if you want an ad-free wattpad experience, you will have to subscribe to wattpad premium. this won’t protect your works from censorship, it will just remove ads for you — so you can read fics without getting interrupted by ads every time you move to the next chapter.

also I guess wattpad premium allows you to download as many works as you want to read offline. whereas if you’re on free plan, you can only download a few works to read offline.

I believe the platform recently updates their rules. nothing changes. you still get ads and censorship. but they just make the rules more strict in regards of smut without any real plot. so basically their new policy just makes things even worse for their own users.

mind you, on ao3, there’s zero censorship. you can post the most filthy porn without plot fic on ao3. you can post the most taboo fic on ao3. ao3 was created specifically to host this exact type of fic. and also. no ads. you can download as many fics as you want to read offline. and everything is free.
