Agreed. Call me a curmudgeon but the lexicon of fandom (and social media shorthand/euphemism more generally) leaking out into wider online vocab is one of the most tedious things to contend with as a working artist today, and I think it genuinely detriments audiences’ mindsets when engaging with art

i hate it so much when people use fandomspeak to refer to my art. i don't have ocs i have characters. self publishing on the internet does not make me a fan rather than an artist
