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.

    In addition to what’s been said already - the community-specific wikis and megathreads. The amount of information I could find there about sometimes very niche topics was amazing. Hopefully something similar will be possible with Lemmy.
