It's tough in the anon period when if you're selective you are quite likely to end up reccing every fic in a fandom except the one your bestie wrote, though :(

It was slightly easier when there was a much bigger rec'ing culture so people were less likely to get upset at that, and when exchange culture was less of a closed system.

I think it's a lot easier to get away with in Yuletide because there's so MUCH fic. I guess if you're in a Yuletide-sized fandom with other people you know who also participated, that's a little harder, but that doesn't really describe most people's Yuletide experience.

I have twenty years of adding people to social media because we like the same yuletide stuff (and getting into yuletide stuff because people I know on social media post about it, and getting people I know on social media into my yuletide stuff) and I promo my noms pretty hard among my circle, and I know a lot of my circle are also looking the five minute/yt-only stuff like the songfic, so there's a pretty good chance I know at least one other person who might have offered most of what I read and is reading my recs posts. The kind of people who are posting long recs lists to the comms/Discords are probably even more likely to have that kind of overlap.
