13. A person who got you into a fandom and what fandom they pulled you in to.

There are so many examples of this, I've probably forgotten a lot of them at this point. One case would be a small group chat I've had for the last 3 years with some fandom friends. We always get each other into new shows so that we can watch and talk about them together, waiting for everyone to watch so that we can discuss things freely without spoilers. It's a great environment to talk about anything fandom-wise, since there's zero drama because we don't judge what the others like, dislike, ship, not ship, etc. They got me into OFMD and Succession, for example! And it all started because we all love Star Trek.

14. Your favorite fandom (for the people; not the thing you fangirl over).

Really good question. I really love the Farscape fandom because it's small but active, and very welcoming to new people. I've also never seen shipping discourse or that sort of fandom drama in it at all!

The Farscape fandom is still active? Wow! <3

I also like the really small groups of openminded people, they keep me going. Larger groups always drive me away sooner or later.

Yes, there's still a small but active Farscape fandom out there! I'm in a Farscape discord and it's a small group, but everyone's very fun and we all love different characters, to there's a bit of content and discussions for everyone. And online I've also seen some dedicated fans who've been in the fandom for ages :)
