you´ve never heard about aminoapps?! I am a little bit shocked because while browsing a few Japanese games, something related to Steven Universe or when you are casually browsing, it always appears with an article related to what you want. Not always MLP related but it appears a lot when you want to look for anime clichés.

>I had heard there was a segment of the proper or at least mainstream "brony" side of things that as they grown older had joined the fandom fully. But I had only sometimes seen people who truly fit the bill in the formal fandom, usually EqD or MLPforums, more rarely on FiMfiction or Derpibooru. This place seems to be dominated or at least by people who fit that bill, at least at a glace...
yeah. I mean, Aminoapps can be seen mostly as an outsider part of the core fanbase, so I have always considered it as a mainstream satellite (along with the social media groups of MLP in facebook, twitter or Pixiv). It looks like a chill out site that Tumblr desired to be and way more casually invested into the show, in the sense that they don´t take it as seriously (relatively speaking) nor present themselves to be dramatic over the events.

From the gallery of videos that they show, it presents itself as the common standards and base material for any fan to spend their time in (Agrol and the Duo Cartoonist reveal a lot where this site is going).

>I was skeptical of how close they could be considered core fandom or even really associated yet I saw stuff referencing major fandom works and people mixed in all there poorly drawn OCs and normal teenage banter so now I'm just confused.
keep in mind that not everything is uniform and while it seems that I am making up statements, there are always exceptions and if one digs deeper, one can always find curious cases.

>Okay... as I was writing this it seems LittleShyFM is on here.
there you have it. Do you need more evidence?

>if even half those memebers were active that could be a significant force upon the fandom. Yet, I can tell you that I do not see near as many people quite this tier in other places. So it is isolated?
as you posted earlier with another forums, many users are isolated in their own little circles and go on their own (like /endpone/ kind of does), regardless of what happens to the "core" part of the fanbase. I also know a few Spanish circles and they also go in isolation even though they don´t reach the size as Aminoapps does.
