Finally! The story* behind the quickquote vs. daily_snitch debacle.
*well, at least one side of it...
Once upon a time,
little_needle made an HP fandom newsletter called
quickquote. All the little HP fen flocked to it, saying, "Oooooh! A shiny new friend!" As time went by, little quickquote became sickly and wan, until
isiscolo came to fill it with recs and links anew. There was much rejoicing. After a while, a foul wind blew across the kingdom, and isiscolo left for the greener pastures of the new
daily_snitch. No one knew why, until now...
ETA: Aaaaand, we have little_needle's goodbye HP fandom post. Thanks, anon!
