Reddit is apparently seeking to strike deals with big AI companies.

        Sure they did. You went to google and added site:reddit.com to your text

          Inurl:reddit.com/r/subreddit

          This let you search only within a specific subreddit

            I think site:reddit.com/r/sub works identically, it’s what I’ve always done

        Have you ever used Reddit’s search? If yes, did you really have a positive experience with it? Personally I found it quite terrible, UX wise in particular. Many people online seem to agree. If you’re looking for something on Reddit it’s actually easier to Google and restrict the site to reddit.com

          Used it? Yes.
          Successfully used it? Not even once.

          ? If yes, did you really have a positive experience with it?

          Yes. I’ve only ever used it (never google) for over a decade. No idea why others had such a bad time with it.

          I didn’t even know people would use Google to search through Reddit till a few months ago. I thought everyone just used Reddits own search bar.

            I’ve used it on occasion…. IMO it’s not bad at finding you something related to your query, but it pales in comparison to google for finding something specific.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
