It would definitely be in high demand if it existed! And I'm with you- I had a lot of ideas but actually taking the time to write them down and make them translate into a readable fic seems like a lot of work.
I have read Wives & Daughters! It was too bad she passed away before she gave it a proper ending. I was waiting for them to get together and I was so disappointed when I didn't get that.
Yes, please do! I have seen Lane/Dave, mostly as a side ship to Rory/Jess, and as much as I enjoy that, I would love to read fic that is just devoted to them and their relationship. I'm sure you would do a great job if you were ever so inclined. No pressure of course. :D
LJ was fun! I loved having to keep up with my flist and there be so much activity. Like you said, the other platforms are just not the same, especially since communities aren't as active here as they were on LJ, which was the best place to interact with other fans. Don't worry, I don't understand Discord either. For the longest time, I was under the belief it was like reddit but turns out it is more of a chat type social media, where there are different groups you can join or form your own. I use it on a limited basis so apologies for the poor explanation.
There will always be people who complain on how you tag, but I'm just thinking more of the ships/characters. I just feel like unless the ship or character plays a big role, it doesn't really feel all the necessary. I know not everyone shares that view and some people will be upset that you forgot to add 'mention of x or x/y ' but it also just clogs up the tags, especially if you like a less popular character or ship. And I'm sure people have thought of the primary/secondary ships (it wasn't my idea originally) but I don't know how easy it would be to implement. Maybe one day!
I think it's okay to get upset. Like you said, we are human. I know there are people who get busy or have genuine anxiety over it, but there are others who just are serial noncommenters who just don't seem to care and those are people I do judge.
