    Sadly, not only is it super useful to us, the people who do that random google search and end up with “Of course Reddit has the answer! Thanks fellow redditor!” and Reddit itself getting the monetization off of us clicking that link to reddit to view the solution. It brings up Reddit visibility in google searches, it directs traffic to their site, it drives user count and ad revenue, etc… If we didn’t have great solutions we’ve posted on Reddit, Reddit would lose a lot of traffic.
