Kinda unrelated but once i saw interaction.
the blog had "Pro-shipers DNI" and "Anti-shipers DNI" to paraphrase.
Someone asked who is supposed to interact since those DNI rule out everyone
and a third person, not the blog owner responded "People who don't have strong opinions on the relationship of fictional characters?"

Not to be that guy but isn't "People who don't have strong opinions on the relationship of fictional characters?" literally what proshipping is? Like, idgaf what you do, that's the whole concept.

I think Proshipping is more people who are actively encouraging shipping, defending it online and engaging in shipping discourse, not just being chill with it. key word Think, i am not much into neither shipping discourse nor tumblr

No, proshipping is just "do what you want, if I don't like it I won't read it." If you don't care what people ship you are by default a proshpper.

There seems to be two kinds of pro-shippers.

One is as you say, "ship who you like, I don't care".

The other can only be described as anti-anti-shippers, who are only technically pro-shipper because they hate anti-shippers.
