What a great URL/site name :D It looks really good! I feel you on the slow-ness of archiving everything you've ever posted from the year dot xD But it still feels great to make any progress!
Oooh, I see you're on Ad Astra, CFAA, and SqWA too! I don't have any Star Trek works but I've been enjoying setting up on CFAA, and I have a few things on SquidgeWorld. It's a shame I don't really do DCU as the majority of fics on CFAA are DCU and I don't really know enough to read and comment xD But high-five for other archives! xD
Basically, I find big, active places/sites to be very 'noisy' for lack of a better word. There's so much Stuff Happening, New Fics Being Posted on AO3, etc., that in a sense it's both a little bit alienating (though that's better when you're in tiny fandoms), and overwhelming.
I really feel this, and it's why I love tiny fandoms. Even though you have to adjust to less of the dopamine from Number-Go-Up and Kudos and Comments, the connections can be more meaningful, and you can have more of an impact there and get to know other people in them. And I really like quieter archives for the same reason. The interactions feel so worthwhile!
