Homestuck․com is returning soon, and so are upd8s! A special event will be hosted performing a rapid serialized re-release of the comic! For new fans, nostalgic fans, or fans considering a reread, we hope to try and recapture a bit of the "update culture" feeling.
You can find more information and a short trailer about it here: https://x.com/homestuck/status/1959695728600879614
Additionally, a new Homestuck Official Discord has just been launched which you can find here: https://discord.com/invite/hsofficial
re:morningWillow
Yeah, exactly. Like... I still don't get how people got "Hussie will capriciously take down your fanventure if you say the wrong thing" from this situation. It's such a bad-faith interpretation.
(except that that was exactly the narrative Gio was going for, of course)
Yes, the UHC is simply a redistribution of Hussie's work. But all fanwork infringes on copyright to some extent, that's why FRAF exists, right? The UHC itself is kind of irrelevant, they sent the DMCA because they knew they could, and because they dislike Gio (whether that is valid or not is up to you).

Yeah I feel like Reddit overreacted.
Don't ask why Geno hates Jade Harley.
That’s something of an understatement. Sometimes I wonder why folks of that stripe still consider themselves Homestuck fans when they spend the vast majority of their online presence pontificating about all the myriad ways Homestuck sucks, the creators suck, et cetera et cetera, and I suspect that some of them are just in it for the drama or else are afflicted with a spirit of schadenfreude that makes them want to root for seeing official content crash and burn (to what end, who can say).
The fact that there were those who were all too ready to whip out the metaphorical torches and pitchforks (I saw a post advocating for the boycotting of the Homestuck patreon) speaks volumes to me.
And will we let the fire go out?
Is this the end for them now?
Sunken ship that has long gone down
Will we let the fire go.. out?

This new Discord server is SO GOOD! The community has been waiting for a large Homestuck server for so long. It's an ideal complement to the FRAF Forums when it comes to fandom conversations! Welcome HSO!
