maybe its a silly sentiment but i just wish people would be a little nicer. i totally understand WHY people would want to gatekeep, hell, even i want to sometimes, but what are they really achieving?? people who gatekeep just make the fandom environment that much more hostile, they're honestly doing more harm than these 'newgens' supposedly are. i feel like people have this sense of entitlement to the comic, and thats fine as long as theyre not an asshole about it, but they forget that they dont OWN homestuck. new people are allowed to read it. its not the end of the world that more people are getting into the thing you like, you shouldnt actively try to push them away.
