I completely agree with this. As someone still in university, albeit now at a postgrad level, it's also a great way to get practice in researching and writing, which can never hurt.

Also some of my favourite things to learn, like the Woolworths name dare, came from an r/askhistorians question.
i cannot emphasize enough how much I think professional historians should monitor and post on r/AskHistorians

the questions are good and the discussions are serious and you reach a big audience
