Are there any places like /lit/ but where people are civil? The incivility and edginess used to excite me when I was a teenager but now it's just annoying and very unpleasant.

There used to be themed bulletin boards. Maybe there’s still some. Might require an email or password or something
A nice small community of *named* literature aficionados should still be out there.

Yeah, I get what you mean. When I used to frequent this board as a teen, I used to think that all the edgy comments about [insert philosophy here] were made by cool intellectuals. Then I actually started reading philosophy and realised that the vast majority of people wouldn't be able to tell a schema from their own asshole. I was profoundly disappointed. Sometimes I wish I could go back to those days, when I thought stupid people were smart and I, being stupid myself, would feel smart by engaging with them. Now I know enough to understand that both they - and I - are stupid regardless and that all of this is pointless.

Men find women cute by default, to the point that a significant fraction of the images posted on 4chan are just girl + thing/activity = instantly interesting.

i find you only have to be kind towards another anon for them to be kind back. If you have patience and do your best to draw them into a discussion, even the most abrasive will settle down and speak civilly.The edgyness is just a facade put up by a troubled and often lonely heart to protect itself from other. But if you treat anons with kindness and seriously engage with them, you'll see that barrier melt away and reveal the fragile but curious soul beneath.
This, i think, is the wellspring of the frens-posting phenomena.

You think that actually means anything to people who are as lonely as you say they are? Instead of a real friendship - it's an insult, a painful reminder of what they lack. The only person who ends up feeling better in the end is you. Well done, pat yourself on the back, you have really done something!

It's so easy when you don't even have to see the other person, when they're gone in but a brief moment, when you don't even know their name. It's so easy, that it's worthless.

Yes, i do think they get fulfillment from being able to discuss the things they like with another, even if only briefly. However short that reprieve, it is a reprieve nonetheless.
You and i cannot provide them friendship, but at least we can provide them an outlet to discuss things—and often things they cant discuss with the few others they may know—once in a while; at least we can treat them like a real human bean in a society that does not afford that nearly enough.
To be shown kindness by a complete stranger who neither knows you or will know you again, i think that is something to be cherished.
