Most people on /lit/ did not start on /lit/. That is a fact. What board did you migrate from? When did you migrate and what made you migrate?

Probably six years ago. I was looking for a pious, non degenerate board, and I found it.

the first thread that made me like /lit/ was about Tim and Eric. before that I think I browsed /int/ and /mu/ but wouldn't actively post there. 2012/13 era-/lit/ was good enough to fool me into thinking this wasn't a waste of time

i used to post on /a/ back in like 2005-2009 or so but then i stopped when i realized anime was shit and then i started caring about literature a couple years before /lit/ was created so i started posting here when it was made in like 2010 exactly one week before j. d. salinger died

I was always literary from a young age, but I never really paid attention to the fact that /lit/ existed for a long time. Started with anime because this is an anime board, lived an ascetic life for a few years, came back to the golden age of /pol/, discovered /lit/ and set up shop. I should have been here all along, really. I still go on /a/ occasionally, /tg/ when bored, /mu/ and /pol/ not really at all, /tv/ for shitposting.

/pol/ was fucking fun during the whole 2015-2016 fiasco. It felt invigorating to fight against history itself, like if we were the good guys watching from the pits of hell. It was as if you were possessed by Kek. But politics is a shit show, always self-serving, no more less than a sport, so I stopped going there. At least some people at /tv/ and /lit/ don't really believe their own bullshit.

Was on /b/ pretty much exclusively from 2007-2012. Also frequented /r9k/ during its early years. Then I started going to /out/, /trv/ and /pol/ around 2013. I'm a liberal centrist and /pol/ is full of shit I don't agree with and generally asinine stuff, but it also has some of the best meme energy of any board. Since around 2016 I stick with /tv/ (though I don't watch much tv it feels the closest to old /b/), /his/, /lit/, /out/, /ck/ and /pol/.
