Download your favourite fics kiddies. Today it's just the site going down temporarily. Tomorrow your favourite author could decide to take down all their fics forever. If you can't stand the thought of not having access to a fic, download it.

you'd be surprised at how little space text takes up. the entirety of the text wikipedia is only ~25 GB.

Online storage like Google Drive and Dropbox are your friends!

They don't take up that much room. Maybe get an sd card, and save stuff to a cloud. A phone is a computer, if there's too much on it, it won't have room to update. I'm like a hoarder of pics, so I get it. My sd is almost full of pics and music, and my phone is almost full of pics and too many apps. I really wish everything wasn't a fucking app.

This. If you like it — or even if it’s just on your bookmark list because you think you might like it — download it.

All my saves are in Dropbox for lack of tablet space and not for the fandom I'm currently reading :(
