A fanfiction website that is about 9000x better than ff.net could ever wish to be, despite the fact that it's still in beta.
Guy 1: Hey dude I just signed up for Archive of Our Own
Guy 2: Dude, same! I posted my first fic yesterday! It's already got like 20 kudos!
Guy 1: DUDE!

Quick explanation: fan fiction is a story based on a fictional/nonfiction world that deviates from the actual timeline and produces an alternate story. For example, if Naruto characters were in the modern world.
Archive of Our Own is a beta nonprofit website that distributes free fan fiction anyone can write with no advertisements at all. However, the process to write a fan fiction on said website is tedious, as the writing quality of these stories could sometimes rival Harry Potter, bringing up competition. Archive is commonly abbreviated to ao3. This website is commonly known as the holy grail of fan fiction, where the elite stories belong due to the sheer dedication people get, the growing support (albeit anonymous), and its intricate ‘tags’ sorting system. For example, take two people, Bakugou and Midoriya. If you want to see a fan fiction with a relationship between the two, you go to their fandom (Boku no Hero), select Relationships, then Midoriya Izuku/Bakugou Katsuki. This fan fiction may or may not have 5000 kudos (likes).
Other fan fiction websites that are notable for being significantly lower tier than Archive are fanfiction.net (ff.net) and Wattpad (wattpad.com).
In short, Archive of Our Own is the best fanfiction website and you cannot change my mind.

Wait, you read fanfiction?

A place where a bunch of dumbass kids go to write about minor pieces of lost media related to their favorite shows. An endless circlejerk of poorly written articles.

An internet database of all things metal that makes teenagers run to the urban dictionary and post their angst induced feelings about the Metal Archives because their favorite ha4dc0re!@! but non-metal band was rejected.
Side Note: By doing this I have fallen in to the bullshit "my opinion matters" trap too.

Conversation at The Metal-Archives (Encyclopaedia Metallum)
Brv0tal Kid: Why is lunkin park rejected from da acrhivez, they are fucken metal!!
MA Mod: Uh.. no they are not, sorry.
Brv0tal Kid: Fuck youa are just a bunch of elitist pricksz, they are hardcore and fukn awesome. It doesn't matter if they are metal or not.
MA Mod: If it doesn't matter if they are metal or not, then why do you care so much about them being rejected.
MA Mod: and when submitting a band to the Archives, it kind of defeats the whole purpose of the website if we accept any band. Otherwise we would call is the Music Archives and add any band to our database.

the action of finding nothing wrong with a current person or thing , so you dig through anything in the past to be angry about
archive activism is toxic. It combines the worst of human interactions, cyberbullying and needing to create an enemy to justify actions
