The hardest part for me was realizing how shit Google search is without appending reddit.

It’s crazy, I never noticed before. I wanted to search something about a game yesterday and the first five hits were Reddit threads, the others were clickbait. And I didn’t even append “reddit” as a search term. It was a simple search.

There must be other terms. I don’t know them but there should be other ways of searching organic content outside of reddit.

You can append -reddit to your search and it hides all non reddit resultsy idk if that was what you meant

Someone made a firefox plugin that redirects to archive.org Wayback Machine cache version of reddit:

months back, I was trying to do something on a Switch, and could not figure it out. the official Nintendo resources were useless, so of course I found a post on reddit. sure enough, a few comments down was the hyper-specific answer I was looking for.

Completely agree. We need to start building that stuff and contributing more in the fediverse so that can’t be a thing in the future
