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.

    1. Tech support that isn’t an advert (Reddit was a goldmine for more interesting hardware)

    2. Cool stats/maths things to share with my students

    3. Snek and Fox pictures to get me through my marking sane(ish)

      Wanted to thank you for number 2. It sounds silly, but my physics teacher in high school would always pull up an invention of the week. Everyone loved it.
