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.

    Google has become completely useless for actual actionable information. Unfortunately, I don’t know of anything that indexes activitypub in a similar manner to tacking site:reddit.com to a google query. I’d bet it’d already be pretty useful, since anecdotally I know a lot of smart people that put really good up to date information there.
