The attitude below: "Well, duh, what did you expect, I'm sick of these HN posts" is a depressing, cynical take.
Google is the search engine, and if a business, or a thought, or a piece of information, doesn't show up there, then it's invisible to 95% of the (Western) human population that doesn't use duckduckgo or Bing or whatever failed alternatives there are.*
I do find it very amusing that I'm not the only one that uses reddit as a keyword in search results, because the results are almost spot on.
* - Yes, I use duckduckgo as my default, but use g! a lot because the results aren't superb for tech items, and it too falls prey to SEO type manipulation with dubious stuff at the top, in my experience.
