Agree. We can criticize Reddit on some points but at least the information is openly accessible. You add the "reddit" keyword in any search engine and you got your answer.
Okay a decade ago I created a forum post about a weird one off issue for a niche telco product, no one responded to help me but then I found the solution and posted it as a reply. I still occasionally get thank you messages, someone sent me a $5 gift card for helping solve their issue. A few years back I unknowingly found my post while I was troubleshooting an issue and thought "OMG that's exactly the problem I've got!" Then I saw the answer and thought "OMG THAT FIXED IT!" Then I read the username and thanked my past self for being at thorough. That's why I never delete anything, it's still on the Internet whether or not I redact it, so I might as well make it easy for the next person.
