We have all been there. That one homework question that’s keeping you from going to bed at midnight. Instead of staying up all hours of the night into the morning, submit your question to r/HomeworkHelp. There are plenty of people who give educated help on those homework questions that seem impossible to solve. And no, this isn’t cheating. To post on this subreddit, you have to show that you have worked on the question and showed significant effort to solve it on your own. No one will answer a question for someone who is obviously trying to get someone else to do their work for them. Also, answers come with explanations. When Redditors respond to your post they will walk you through how to get to the correct answer.

Similar to r/Advice, r/AskReddit is full of people looking for answers to any questions they think up.

This subreddit is yet again one that can keep you up all night reading the massive amount of interesting questions and answers. Overall, this entire subreddit is quite thought-provoking in a very entertaining way, so be sure to contribute and follow this subreddit!
