why is /lit/ the most miserable and hostile board?

You see the same thing with Fromsoft and Silksong threads. People cannot cope with difficulty so they grasp at straws to bring authors they don't understand down.

Pseudointellectual + poltard -> misery

Dead medium consumers -> old people -> misery

>>24826415
Out of any board /LIT/ values their time and so praises effort posting with (yous) and responses while mocking low effort pseud tourists. I have a ball here.
>>
Idk man I kept asking myself that in the last few days. Everytime I post anything there's some mouth drooling retard taking offense to it. And most of the time it's either because they're illiterate or because they feel like sperging about politics and they've chosen me at their target.

And then I look in the
>your age
>last book you read
type of threads and I see all these 30 years old+ dude. Am I really getting into shit flinging competitions with people with families? Don't these fuckers have anything better to do?

This is overall the fourth worst board on 4chan. Right after /v/, /his/ and /pol/ (all tied). And out of these four ones /lit/ is the most joyless one. Even niggers on /pol/ can take a joke.
>>
>>24826415
It's not.
>>
>>24826563
/vg/ is way worse than /v/. And /lit/ at least pretends to be about literature, /mu/ is just KPOP general these days.
>>
>>24826415
It's not. You only need to glimpse at the modern quality of /g/ to see how pleasant we are.
>>
why you mad tho?

Every board on 4chan is the most miserable and hostile one.

/trv/ is pretty comfy, relatively speaking, but if we're talking /lit/, nearly everything beyond /pol/ is less hostile to open-minded discourse.

It's the only one with good moderation and an actual sense of community. I don't even like anime anymore but I came back from time to time for the last JoJo storytime threads that happened this year and it was some of the most fun I've ever had on this website. It was hilarious and there were an infinite amount of OC memes and fanart being made.
They still do secret santas where they send gifts to each other too. It's the last board with sovl.

Aside from this, literature and reading is suffering. It requires more attention and introspection than any other art form. That is inevitably miserable and part of the experience.

Your logic implies that anything remotely difficult to understand is inherently a net positive, which it isn't. Trial and error in a different medium, like a video game, is not comparable to work of literature, which is more involved and abstract.

Retard.

what the fuck are you talking about? /lit/ is literally one of the best boards on this shit
>actualy intellectual without being pretensious given we are all retards using this shitty site to begin with
>user flitering, those are interested in russian lit threads wont shit up poetry creative threads and the like on and on unlike other boards

if you cant take ribbing and the odd genuinely shit but authetnic take here and there you are a bitch

/wsr/, nothing compares to the chads on there

>>24826415
The most miserable board is /r9k/ or one of the other porn boards .
>/lit/ is the most hostile
Not even close /ic/ is the most hostile
>>
>>24827415
>t. One of the retards who spam politics in every thread
>>
>>24826636
/ck/ and /o/ are the best boards, and mighty helpful, but I spend most time here, alas
>>
/lit/ is hardly the worst board. /v/ is much worse. /lit/ will have at least 5-10 good faith threads on a given day plus some decent generals, while everything on /v/ is bait drenched in multiple layers of irony and passive-aggression.
I'm not saying what the good boards are because I don't want you retards ruining them.
>>
>>24826415
you ever been to /pol/? even /vg/'s game dev thread is worse
>>
>>24827415
This anon is part of the problem
>>
>>24826415
The same reason the Bible has a book called Lamentations.
>>
>>24826415
I actually think it's /vg/ or /vt/. /ck/ is incredibly hostile as well.
As far as misery in the air, I actually think /cgl/ has /r9k/ beat.

>>24826636
/diy/ is excellent. /out/ is cool.
>>
/his/ is this board but worse.
>>
sure got a lotta mileage out of this. can't wait for the assmad fag mod to ban me for it

/lit/ is arguably the best board imo. People here actually read and write.

/tv/ doesn’t watch anything.
/ic/ doesn’t draw.
/sci/ is full of larpers.
/int/ is full of pajeets larping with other people’s flags.
I can’t have technical discussion on /g/ any more.
/adv/ has been taken over by obviously fake and strange posts. I suspect AI LLM bots.
And so on.

I guess /p/ actually takes photos too. But photography is a lower art form.

/r9k/ is just bait threads and endless gooning. It's 50% incels and 50% women and men who want to be called ma'am. But if you filter 85% of the posts it's actually not so bad.
>>
>>24826563
> all these 30 years old+
Some of us actually had time to read and you’re jealous or something? Instead of seeing it as a resource you’re mad older people than you exist on a board you’re new to?
Breaking some pretty basic etiquette trying to lay claim to something you didn’t create in the first place. Go back to TikTok then, live like your generation does.
>>
>>24828257
You can call out the christnigger and pollack threads easily by just asking questions about books. They don’t read anything. They just like to pretend so they can spew their usual garbage on other boards.
>>
>>24828353
That's what I keep saying. It's like they've been so irony-poisoned by social media that they view the existence of any priority and experience further than their own as a threat.
