For me it's been communities like /r/buildapc, /r/buildapcforme, /r/buildapcsales, /r/gamedeals, and /r/consoledeals have been useful throughout the years.

Yes, it's probably the best information source on reddit because of the combination of expert knowledge and strict moderation. I'm sure the strict moderation is why the experts spend their time there, because they know they won't have to deal with the average redditor.

Absolutely, I know that any time questions on my field of expertise has popped up on reddit I can be fairly hesitant to share just knowing the amount of effort it would take to answer in a way that feels appropriate combined with the fact that you'll get contrarians popping out of every corner to claim their pop science interpretations are in-fact correct. I can't imagine trying to do that when it comes to something like history, which I personally think is going to have a much higher minimum involvement in general due to the very political nature of much of it.
