okay SERIOUS question.. Just what exactly is Ao3 and how do I use it..? I heard that's where the good stuff are but from screenshots I see of it, it looks too complicated for someone like me so I got lazy from wanting to try it..
trust, you'll get used to it. Honestly, all you need to do is make an account and use the search bar if you want to find something specific. If you want to explore some ff then just press browse, pretty simple.
Oh yeah, to answer what it is, it's basically fanfic.
archiveofourown.org is an archive for fan created works. Mostly it's fanfic but there's also art and occasionally fanvids. I'm sure they have a guide on how to use it, I'll try to find it for you if you're interested. They have an excellent tagging system which makes it easy to find stuff and filter out stuff. It's really not difficult to us. Oh and it does not have an algorithm which is a concept I've seen some people struggle with
Archive of Our Own is a relatively highly regarded website where many post their own writing, mostly fanfiction then original content but there's still quite a bit of original content on the site. The website is highly praised due to it's relatively high quality works and its sorting system which I'm sure is the thing that is stumping you. Honestly it looks very confusing at first but it's sort of like how code looks like it's random numbers and phrases until you actually learn the basics of it. There are plenty of YouTube videos actually explaining in-depth of how to use it properly, however, you can do what I did back in middle school and just completely looked at everything without filter from the specific fandom or ship I looked into. It made me learn the hard way and read so many things I wished I never read but it worked out eventually
Here's their article on how searches work

Also if you wan to make an account, you have to request an invitation first. It's really simple you just give them your email address and they send you the link. There's a wait-list though and I think right now the wait time is around a week. You can use the site without an account but some works are locked so that only signed in users can read them and you can't make bookmarks or subscribe for updates without an account. Kind of like mgg
I don't know how to feel
