No.

The point of this site is to **build a resource for future visitors, not to generate interesting questions for people to answer.**

One of the major selling points of Codidact when considering moving here is that we didn't have to start from scratch and leave behind all of the content that we had put so much work into.

I don't want to reanswer questions that I have already answered on the old site, 
[like this one for example.](https://outdoors.codidact.com/questions/279196) nor do I want to have to link to SE every time I need to reference an old answer or question.

It would be reasonable to ask that the front page not get flooded, but it has long been established that bumping one or two old questions per day is fine, especially in times of little other activity.
