Well, I'm not much of a brony as I don't like the show, but I greatly respect the fans and their work. I often wish the fanbase of some other franchises were as talented and ambitious as the bronies.
Okay, I doubt a lot of you will actually end up reading this, but those curious enough to seek out answers, there is a reason why I haven't updated Gilded Sister in a while, and it's... kinda dumb.

Admittedly, the things I generally dislike about HiE and AiE haven't changed, and I'm avoiding them in my fic. Like, I don't like when the protagonist gets the romantic attention of ponies way out of their league, such as royalty, most of the Mane6, or a goddess, without actually being of comparative standing or character.
The Anon in my story isn't wooing a successful and outgoing entrepreneur, one of the princesses, or an embodiment of a universal force, he's caught the eye of a NEETpone, who, as much as I like her, doesn't really rate very high on the conventional 1-10 attractive scale and who doesn't have very high standards herself. This isn't a story about a 4-5 human getting with a 9-10 pony, it's the story of two undesirables finding one another and helping eachother rise above their lots in life.

I'm so confused. I'll never understand that site and the strange quirks of the people who roam there. Fimfiction is much better for stories, anyways.

Reminds me of my transitions to liking stuff I used to hate. From pokeporn, to anal, and even mlp itself.
As a wise man once said, 'the more you actively hate on something, the more likely you'll succumb to its influences'.

Yeah, I know, I even mentioned as such in this blogpost:

For someone who was unreasonably agitated about the presence of Anon in a certain story, you sure seem to have picked up the character rather well. 🤔
