Why are there 3,065 fics tagged 'Christian Bible'
I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF A FIC!!!!
🕯work fast dear technicians🕯
i wish ao3 would let me see where i've left kudos... is there a way to do that?
There is currently no way to search for the fics that you've Kudo'd . Kudos aren't tracked except to tell you you've already left one on a fic. The best bet is to bookmark fics you like or to save for later.
There is a Reddit post on a way to add a user script that would allow you to see your kudo'd fics but I've personally never used it so try it at your own risk here I think it's only for a computer browser, but again I've never used it.
Your best bet would be to petition ao3 for it, they do update the website with new things (ex bookmarks sorted by updated, block users etc), so it might be a thing we get in the future just not right now.
TL:DR: No, maybe if you use a computer? But also it could be a thing in the future.

“I wish ao3 would let me..." p3
"I wish ao3 would let me see the most recently posted fic on the site"
Go to the main page, go to the drop down box under 'browse', go to 'works', this will pull up the most recent fics posted on the site.
"I wish ao3 would let me filter out [a tag] or /[character] but not [character]"
go to the filter and go to the 'exclude' section use the Exclude section to look up the specific tag ex under the MCU tag you click on the characters and find for example Tony Stark to not see fics with him. if you can't find the tag, go to the text box at the bottom and type in the tag then either it will come up or you have to sort and filter to enter it in.
to get rid of all ships for a character but not the character all together you'd use -/[character] in the Search Within Results section Ex you want to remove all [character]/Tony Stark fics no matter the other person, but you still want Tony Stark as a character you'd do -/Tony Stark in the Search Within Results section. (this works in reverse too so if you want all the fics to be /Tony Stark and you don't care about the paring you'll do +/Tony Stark)
"I wish ao3 would let me filter by oldest fic FIRST not youngest to oldest"
go to the filters for your tag, type in sort:>posted in the Search within Results section then sort and filter. now it's set from oldest posted to the archive to youngest posted.

Put complete:true (exactly like that) in the Search Within Results section of the Sort And Filter section of your Bookmarks, now your bookmarks are sorted by completed works.
put expected_number_of_chapters: 1 (exactly like that) in the Search Within Results section of the filter to get all fics with one chapter. If you change the number it changes the number of chapters so 5 will pull up fics with 5 chapters and on and on. if you want to sort out all fics with one chapter (or 5 for 30 whatever) put -expected_number_of_chapters: 1 (exactly like that) in the Search within results section of the filter.
Step one go to here and find the code for your languages of choice it will be like fr for French, es for Spanish but find that for your languages.
then go to the Search Within Results section of the filters and put in language_id:abbreviation OR language_id:abbreviation
(exactly like that) but where it says 'abbreviation' put the language code so
language_id:fr OR language_id:es
Will pull up fics in only French or Spanish
Find the author, copy their name, go to the Search Within Results section and put -(author) so -batcavescolony then sort and filter. Now for that section you won't see anything by that author

sucks that we’re having regressive arguments about the direction of ao3 like “should we ban some content” and not forward thinking discussions like “we should get the ability to search or exclude all ship tags with a certain character name in it”
i think an “always exclude” setting would be a super useful feature to include next! There are so many tags I have to filter to avoid squicks, especially in certain fandoms that are bad at tagging, and having to fine-tune that every time isn’t even really worth it. Being able to store user preferences for “always exclude these tags automatically” would cut down on that so much.
Ok so here we go, idk exactly what everyone uses but you should be able to do this with a computer or phone, idk your browser but mine is DuckDuckGo and it's on mobile.
First step: open up ao3, go to your fandom tag and filter everything out you don't want. For this example it's the Batman tag. after you're satisfied, press sort and filter.
Next step: there should be three dots
Or maybe in your browser settings again I have duckduckgo you might need to look around. But click on that and this comes up
Next step: add bookmark now edit the name on the book mark to label it
Name it's something so you know it's the filtered version
It's all filtered for you.
Now if you wanna go even further go back to the three dots and (at least in duckduckgo) their is a 'add to home screen' section (you.get the idea I'm not showing you my home screen)
So now it's like an app on your home screen.
Anyway hope this helps, happy reading!

I'm bored, I'm gonna re download Wattpad and see what's going on.
I can't guys 😭 I'm dying ao3 come save me what is this!?!?! The site is unusable I swear.
You can do reactions in the comments that's cool ig?
I do like being able to comment on individual lines though
I feel like a boomer 💀 how the hell do you work this? And the ads are so long and after every other chapter. If I was reading and I had to wait for 5 mins of ads before moving on I'd go insane. Do people still use this as their main reading app? Ff. Net is better tbh

Opening ao3 after the 10hr maintenance shut down is like walking into your house after a vacation, it's the same but you have to look around and see if anything changed.
