Is /lit/ having a renaissance? Anonymous Mon Nov 20 23:09:46 2017 No.10295372 [Reply] [Original]

After dropping this board for r/literature, I find myself coming back more and more for what appears to be:
- Better quality of discussion
- Willingness to post different opinions and not vituperate the other opinion
- Meet-ups (what the fuck?)

Is the dethroning of DFW's Infinite Jest from our #1 spot the reason for this rebirth?

>>	Anonymous Tue Nov 21 03:51:03 2017 No.10295989 This place is worse than ever. A bunch of humanitiesfags posturing over the same few books and liking everything academia and publishing tells them to. lit perfectly resembles the constipated nature of literature as a whole
