> People use Google to search Reddit because Reddit has terrible search. Hey why don't you prove your assertion. > Your other assertions would need to be proved more rigorously. Not just for Google, but for any search engine. These are not my assertions. It's a claim the fine article is making. And they're not the only one making that claim. Anecdotally a lot of people are saying they do this to get useful results because Google results are trash. For example: https://www.resetera.com/threads/google-search-is-just-trash-now.125691/#post-22235872 https://www.resetera.com/threads/google-search-is-just-trash... https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27429722 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27429722 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27379228 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27379228 Heck there's even a website for this: https://sirchester.app/ https://sirchester.app/ > Because Google results have been spammy and useless lately. Adding "reddit" or "hacker news" often yields better results.
