It's hard to get a comprehensive poll in Lounge, since it's off-topic few people (less than 30) ever come to do anything (the forum users mainly comment on manga titles/chapters and use channels like Support/Bugs). So it's basically about regulars and just those who may be interested/check constantly the forum.
I do like yuri, but if the story and/or characters are shit, I won't bother with it just because. Never could figure why Citrus and its sort are so popular, it's pure crap.
Stuff I dislike/have grown tired of over the years:
Drama for the sake of drama
5 minute conversation could solve issues, but talking is forbidden until plot allows it
Suddenly, a third wheel appears for no reason except point 1
Will they or won't they and then they never, if you are actually writing yuri in a yuri magazine, commit to it!
"And then she/they died". Tragedy for the sake of tragedy never works. Twist for the sake of a twist never works, just ask Shamalamalalamlalmalmama
I've only read baihe manhuas lol (chinese yuri), but i do hate manhuas where misunderstanding last like a million chapters and its just one that could be solved with a simple talk.
I can't enjoy yuri because my brain reminds me they can't make a baby and that real life lesbians have the highest rate of domestic abuse.
I appreciate its existence, and understand those that enjoy it, but it makes me sad in an irrational way.

There's no need to repeat that piece of disinformation, the domestic abuse is from prior straight relationships, and using that as an argument is misogyny anyways, specially if you need to make it sound that the only purpose of having females is reproduction (they can conceive artificially anyways). Thanks for participating in the poll though.
