I'm always looking for more places to share my stories. Here's a list of the sites I use or have used. Can anyone recommend some others? Nothing like Webnovel that expects you to only upload to their site, though.

I use/have used:
Scribble Hub
Fictionpress (dead site)
Wattpad (not dead but may as well be)
Royal Road (banned)
Honeyfeed
SoFurry
Furaffinity

Why are you banned on RR? Ahem, anyway, it's easier for me to post those threads instead of copying every separate reply.

I don't actually know. I was a user for about a year, then one day I woke up and found out my account had been banned. When I contacted them about it, nobody could name any specific rules that I had broken, just that I was "argumentative." When I asked why they had banned me and not the trolls who openly harass people in the forums, they stopped replying.

Yeah, I'm still kinda pissed about it.

Damn! I really hate hypocrisy, so I offer my condolences. I hope you will get super popular on other sites.

I'm pretty sure I've checked them out before. Don't they have ridiculously low word count limits? Like, each chapter can only be 500 words maximum or something?

That could be very good if they have an inversely large number of readers. Or it could mean that the writers make up most of the user base and readers are almost nonexistent.
Explain. Share it with the class.
Scroll up.

Before ScribbleHub, I used / used to use FanFiction, FictionPress, Wattpad, Quotev, and RoyalRoad. Back in the day (2011-2014) Wattpad was a lively place; it's still active but not really a place where you can interact much with other writers (let alone readers), since Wattpad doesn't host forums anymore.

That's messed up.

There is a growing readerbase.

If it's any consolation, I got a full ban for "posting pornography" because I ATTEMPTED to post my story, A Succbus' Love. For those not in the know, it's literally about a succubus who has an instinctive need to sleep with a man, but the human that summoned her (Who she would normally sleep with) doesn't want to, so it's a slow-burn romance. The first smut scene is like 1/3 of the 6th chapter. I didn't even get the first one posted. The title was enough to get me banned.

Wattpad isn't even good for smut since their rules prohibit how "smutty" a story can be. They forcefully removed all of Lay the Dragon as "porn" despite the fact that only like 20% of the overall story is smut.

As for Tapas, I tried it back in the day. Is it actually decent now? It was completely dead to anything but comics 5-6 years ago.

Yeah, I heard about their weird hatred for succubi. I dodged a bullet there because Henry's best friend in Henry Rider: Clown Hunter was originally supposed to be a succubus. Only, just like how klaons feed on laughter, succubi in this universe feed on feelings of attraction, which led to the myth of them being sex demons because...you can probably guess why. Luckily, I realized that having an underage girl be a succubus, even if she wasn't a literal sex demon, probably wasn't going to fly, so I made her a genie instead. Good thing too, because that led to a way cooler character arc for her to go through.

I was unaware of their hatred for supposed sex demons. But I like subverting expectations. So in the universe of Succubus' Love, succubi are portrayed as basically demonic prostitutes. They don't enjoy it, but it's their job under threat of punishment. So Wystia ends up quitting that job to stay with MC.

Though, I do write smut, so there are scenes. but like I said, it's a relatively slow burn.

1200 I think - and no sexual nudity, whatever that means. Considered posting something there then backed out recently.

Wattpad may have instated the rule but it has become an unmoderated hellscape in recent years being mostly dead with tons of basic flirt light smut series.

Tapas has become a lot bigger but you have to be active in the forums and/or discord to actually see much growth.
