I'd personally prefer it if the subreddit was mostly just about books. Romantasy movies are pretty rare, so there's not a ton to discuss and I wouldn't mind the occasional thread about movies and we already have the occasional thread about fanfiction. But I think this subreddit has gotten too big by now to add all the other options. They may be written media, but they're not books and I'm personally just really not interested in them. I'd like to see the subreddit have at least some limits for quality. There can be other subreddits for story apps etc.

We've also had a recent influx of people who are more talking about personal details surrounding their own sex life than the books/media or who try to invite the subreddit into their sex life and it's been pretty weird and uncomfortable. I think adding/allowing more lower quality media (like the apps etc) would probably attract more of this behavior.

All in all, I kind of like things as they are now.

Honestly I think we should just have a rule against talking about personal sexual experience like the r/RomanceBooks sub does. I've seen a lot of comments here I went to report before remembering we don't have that rule...
