I was actively following Problem Sleuth so it was natural I saw Homestuck. I personally don't really like how incredibly convoluted it became at the very end, and the build up to the final battle didn't really happen in the final animated scene so that was a bit of a let down.

In high school it seemed that most kf my friends were already familiar with it. And then when they discovered I was not, they were baffled.
After a bit I yielded to peer pressure.
Alright. I was a late comer. I got into the fandom after playing undertale. Well, I've actually finished it two days before chapter 1 of deltarune was released, so I've never really been in the Undertale fandom, but went straight to Deltarune.
Anyway, I've found out about Toby's involvement in homestuck, so naturally I've started reading it. I can't put my finger on, when exactly, but it took me about a year to get through it, and I've finished it in March 2020.
And I've to say that I've really liked it. I regret not getting into it earlier, but it's still remarkable how active the fandom is after all this time.
Myself, after 3 years, I'm still somewhat active. I've used to post quite a lot, especially on r/althomestuck. Nowadays, not so much, but that's mostly because I don't have as much spare time as I've used to.
I was walking through 2nd and charles a while back and found act 1 and 2 of homestuck as a book. I looked at it and thought "What the heck is this?" Later™ I googled homestuck and found it online entirely for free, and tried to read it only to skip around a bunch only to wonder "what the fuck is going on???" I tried to read it from the beginning but I couldn't help but just find the thing extremely boring.
Fast forward a year or two, I watch this Iceberg video and find one about Homestuck that mentions the unofficial homestuck collection. I figured I'd go out of my way to install it and try reading it again, and the rest is history.
Would it kill the mods to write more than two words in the community description? "Homestuck community", thanks for nothing. I came across this randomly in my feed,people's brains aren't online-connected wikipedias.
