Oof haven’t been there in a long time. When I used it, it was a fun place for writing advice and discussing fiction. Loads of nerdy fanbases there and loads of fanfic naturally. I had my potterhead era there and its where I discovered lord of the rings (beyond the movies) and wheel of time etc.
And now I’m making a map of my own world drawing mountains making sure I know where the tectonic plates are, creating rivers making sure I know the topology of my land. Creating a new language from scratch. Creating gods and their stories, religions and their rules. A rough history of 50000 years so I can include none of that in a story I intend to write just so there’s good world building. That world building knowledge comes from tumblr.
