sad and amazing how true this is.
to find anything worthwhile in Google search you often needed to add site:reddit.com
to find anything at all on Reddit you needed Google
well, glad I don’t go to those websites anymore…
People say this all the time, but I search prolifically and have literally never had to do this to get a relevant result top 4.
What are you guys doing, using full sentences with puffery like you’re talking to the Enterprise or something?
Have you never searched for a problem where you wanted to hear actual people talk about the solution? If I don’t suffix it with “Reddit” I just get SEO spam/AI generated articles which may or may not actually be useful. Usually I want to know what real people think about the issue.

Huh? I just used reddits own search bar. Worked just fine for me.
Edit: Man some of you are bitter at the fact that not everyone had issues using Reddits own search. Lmao
oh man this is hilarious.
you’re kidding right? did they fix it right before everyone left in disgust and no one even noticed?
I’ve found that Reddit’s search generally works when searching within a specific subreddit, but otherwise it’s mostly useless.
Idk I always found the result sorting to be, I mean, obscenely bad. I would find better more accurate results searching in Google “r/whateversub” followed by whatever it was I was trying to find.
