Answer 1

#S.A.D "But what is the benefits?"
indeed!
perhaps, you can quickly switch among them just using SL.
And I have some thoughts that this is kinda marketing movement or for statistic and further improvement using data analysis.

Answer 2

#S.A.D
already told you, people love when they gain followers.

If you are asking that what is the purpose of those sites then:

Github: A site that mostly every developer uses, you can organize your codes there, create repositories, and look at other people's codes and clone them on to your computer, make changes to them, and a lot of stuff.

Stackoverflow: Bro this site is the best if you wanna look for a solution of probably ANYTHING related to programming. Any error, bug, confusion or whatever, just search and you would find the question already asked by someone else, otherwise you can ask it yourself.

LinkedIn: never used so idk, but its like job profile or something.

Answer 3

Its your choice if you wanna add those accs in sololearn or not, if you choose to add them, there is a chance of you gaining followers on github/stackoverflow from sololearn who visit your profile.

Answer 4

You can link your profiles so that when someone visits to your profile they can found you on other platforms also
Hope it helps Happy Coding 🙌🙌
