Did anyone request this bot to post to this community? Especially with question posts like this it is really pointless to cross-post from Reddit.

I agree. Its one thing to have cross-posted articles, but with questions like this, the OP is never going to see it so it feels like a complete waste of time.

Fighting the good SEO fight is worth doing.

If we have content presence to the search engine, we might actually attract new visitors.

I see it as a snowball effect, if not a seemingly nonsensical one from the outset.

We are not going to attract users if there is no good answers to such a post.

I was trying to articulate that there is value in providing answers to questions for an OP that might never see them.

In that scenario there is value for organic search arrivals.

Yes it is a bit of shouting into the void, but you have to start that content somewhere.
