toril @toril.bsky.social · 22/09/2026one more note - i'm seeing tapas described as an "indie space" and in terms of technically providing a platform that artists were able to access, that is true. but internally it was an ip farm that existed to make the next mcu or game of thrones. 114817
toril @toril.bsky.social · 22/09/2026there was a culture of disdain towards readers (who were broadly disparaged for enjoying the most popular genres - yaoi, isekai, het romance, etc) that really ticked me off. it's not just that i'm an idealist - i LOVE money! you can't make money if you don't respect your audience 21432
