Also used it to save information to the internet for future people to find if they ever need it.

I just recently I had an issue getting an OLED display driver to work on an esp8266 board, and given that it was a cheap board on a popular sale site I recorded the information so that other people when they are looking for the exact same thing I'm looking for will be able to find it from my post.

I have little to no intention of further referencing that post

If more people did that, we'd be cured of the "found a solution in an old post -> solution is deleted" trend which has woefully plagued the web.
