I have a lot of my explicit stuff locked down just because I've been adjacent to anti-types enough, and work in a job that's kid-adjacent enough, that I want as much 'I limited it to people who were looking for it' as I can.
But part of that is also not wanting it to come up on a google search? so IDK.
Yeah, I think a lot of it for me is not wanting it to be hard to find if someone's looking for that content, while also not wanting it to be too easy to stumble over (or come up in a Google search).
I think some people just locked all their AO3 fic for whatever reason and it's often still around in other places.
Heck, I have some things that are literally only on DW because they got written after the last time I updated my personal fic site but before I started actually posting things to AO3. ^^; (I keep meaning to put it on AO3, but part of me irrationally feels like if I start posting Fruits Basket fic there I ~have to~ post all of my Fruits Basket fic there, and it's overwhelming.)
