the low effort post thread from the other day has me wondering: what’s the highest effort post ever made?
is it homestuck? the voyager golden records? what are the upper bounds of posting?
homestuck and the voyager golden records are good picks here but I think another overlooked classic of posting is twilight, which started out as 50 shades of grey fic
edit: as @ghoulnoise pointed out I typoed the relationship here, and 50 shades of grey is actually twilight fanfic
I am extremely sleepy
50 shades is a fairly epic post but honestly it's not even among the most epic fanfics. and honestly given that it reads like it was written in a single draft without editing i would call it about as low effort as something of its length could possibly be. my vote is firmly for homestuck as the highest effort post of all time
a fanfic that IS maybe among the highest effort posts is the subspace emissary's worlds conquest, which is over four million words. but homestuck might still have it beat, being a multimedia project and all.
