I have just stuck to my small group of fellow adults in my fandom. Since fandom became ‘mainstream’ so to speak, it’s been *so* different.

me too, but it depends on the fandom. a lot of the fandoms i’m in rn are super old and have mostly died out. but for some of the fandoms im in that are bigger/more relevant, i can see your point. younger fans don’t want to be seen as cringe anymore. and everyone wants to be seen as a perfect person. it’s annoying but that’s just how things are leaning these days
