HAPPY 20 YEARS TO FF.NET!

It was launched twenty years ago today, and single-handedly changed the fandom game. It opened Fanfic hosting to anyone with an email address, including fangirls like myself that couldn’t afford servers or connected to fandom to get hosted anywhere.

It’s fallen in decline in recent years, but I feel like it deserves a shout-out for being the predecessor for all that’s come after it, AO3 included 👍👌
