For me, it’s a few things.

  1. A way to burn time that doesn’t feel like a digital sugar rush.

  2. Support, camaraderie, and kindness, primarily from /r/stopdrinking.

  3. Niche stuff, like ideas for local hiking and backpacking trips, propaganda posters, and kayaking info.

    Well said. It’s something I’ve done often without realizing I was doing it. There’s something valuable in hearing the perspective or advice of what seem like real people and not a marketing campaign.
