  • To try to receive answers, and to popularize Codidact, I'm thinking of submitting links to Reddit for unanswered questions.
  • Although some subreddits forbid you from submitting a link already submitted to any subreddit in the past — to fight spam — the snag is that on many Sub Reddits, my submitted link never appears because moderators forget to approve the link, or I don't have enough karma points. In any case, nobody ever sees my submitted link, thus I'm not spamming, thus this is completely principled and ethical.
  • This isn't a hitch for Stack Exchange posts, because I can just add integers at the end. Reddit admits the following as unique URLs.
  • https://math.stackexchange.com/a/3619240
  • https://math.stackexchange.com/a/3619240/1

How can I effortlessly spawn new, unused URLs to the same question on Codidact? 
To try to receive answers, and to popularize Codidact, I'm thinking of submitting links to Reddit for unanswered questions. But the hitch is that some subreddits forbid you from submitting a link already submitted in the recent past to any subreddit. 

This isn't a hitch for Stack Exchange posts, because I can  just add integers at the end. Reddit admits the following as unique URLs.

https://math.stackexchange.com/a/3619240
https://math.stackexchange.com/a/3619240/1
...
https://math.stackexchange.com/a/3619240/50

But this fails for Codidact questions.
