Does /lit/ have the average oldest userbase of a board? Every other board seems to be inundated with early 20-somethings and teen zoomers these days.

Also books about/by people who've wasted their lives.

I remember being in a thread where you post your age and the last book you read.
Majority were 19-22 I'd say. Or maybe that's who gets attracted by those threads...

What makes you think that? All I see when I look around is the pseud shit you'd expect from college level kids.
/pol/ is the oldest board, courtesy of the migapede boomer invasion.

They have to be somewhere and most other boards are just shitposting. I don't understand how older anons (and internet users) have just disappeared off the face of the internet. SA is the only place that houses those type of users and that's a dying website, so where are the rest?

8 c h a n. (spam error what??) They fled there after 4chan became mainstream.
And it has become mainstream. Not that that's necessarily a bad thing, but it also means more close monitoring from authorities. Probably not so much on /lit/, unless they're worried about the connection between intellectualism and informed dissent.

Fuck off with that bullshit clone, barely any clone of 4chan is decent. ate-chan is only good for stealing patreon downloads.
