I often use reddit as a search engine for answers with a "human touch" for lack of a better word. I once did this with del.icio.us back in the "social bookmarking" days. I'm curious if this is a big use case for Reddit users do this too?
Maybe not based on the low quality of their search engine...
- xur17 8y agoI frequently do the same with "site:reddit.com" searches on Google for "human touch" answers. I do the same thing with Hacker News for technical topics.

- sudshekhar 8y agoIndeed, I use reddit whenever I a) Plan to learn/read something new b) Just finished a book/tv series and want to connect with others around it. c) Looking for recommendations in various genres Daily news/connecting with people/cat videos are very far away from my use case. Just append "reddit" to qoogle search query and 9 times out of 10, I am golden.
