Tumblr has never successfully engaged me, either. I prefer threaded comments, and have been mostly keeping up with fandom via the ff_a anon meme.
I am, alas, one of those old-school OTPers who can't stand conflicting pairings even in other versions of canon - every Steve must love every Tony, in every universe, ditto for Kirk/Spock, Peter Parker/MJ, etc. MCU, Star Trek Reboot, and the Andrew Garfield Spidey movies have all been very much the wrong fandoms for me :p (The movies basically lost me with the whole "Ultron without Hank Pym" thing anyway and the Ant-Man movies were insult to injury /bitter Hank&Jan fan)
On the other hand, the Venom movie has surprisingly made my Eddie Brock/Venom Symbiote OTP widely popular all of a sudden, whereas before it was me squeeing over the true love of a bitter/sullen Spidey-hating ex-reporter and a homicidal puddle of alien goo all on my weirdo lonesome.
