Yeah, it seems this bot is quite active now! A couple of my Telegram friends have also received comments from them...

Oh, I'm so sorry you encountered this too! It seems this is becoming a popular spam – my friends who rarely receive comments on AO3 and don't even write in English suddenly received this kind of feedback (thankfully, they all have alertness because of AI shit).

I hope so! I can live with the lack of comments, but the generated ones just piss me off 😣

➡️Fans of such headcanons love to point to season 2, but NONE of their arguments align 100% with what I saw on screen — the show leaves plenty of room for interpretation, I think, but people have latched onto one thing, and it's pretty OOCish.

I completely agree with you!! I've always viewed Gentlebeard as equal, self-sufficient, and strong characters with their own weaknesses, flaws, and swee quirks. The imbalance between the top-dom Stede and the incompetent princess Ed is super weird and disappointing.➡️

of Gentlebeard is something that I will always be upset about.
I'm not trying to hate on those who like it - I'm glad you've found a niche you enjoy, especially a relatively popular one! It just isn't for me, personally, and I wanted to get that off my chest.

I just cannot see Ed wearing Hello Kitty merch, needing Daddy Stede to do stuff like opening pickle jars for him. It's like those "Y/N and the CEO" stories.
Hyper-masculine Stede x hyper-feminine Ed haunts me is what I'm saying. I like season 2, but the things it did to the fandoms characterization

Oh, no! I hope you feel better soon 🫂
