Comment on What're your strong opinions from an aged / dead fandom?
Apytele@sh.itjust.works 1 week agoNo that’s valid tbh. Genres are 100% a part of fandom. I always admired the steampunk aesthetic but never had the resources to get into it. I’ve loved the bits that overlap with stuff like stardust though!

I’m much the same. When I got into it, the brass goggles forum required you to hand make and chare your goggles to be a full member. By the time I had the skill to do that, the forum had died and the fandom was a tag on Etsy for dropshippers.
