Reddits new format has made it remarkably difficult to have the content you're looking for get picked up the by the indexer.
That site has had a detrimental shift in terms of quality, indexability, accessibility and countless other "ilities" from that single "redesign".
- quadrifoliate 4y agoThere is no new format [1]. Just stop referring to reddit.com when you think about the site. Go to https://old.reddit.com https://old.reddit.com, and redirect everyone you know to it. Use an extension to redirect when you're not logged in [2]. Also change your site preferences to keep the old version when you are logged in. Everything works as expected. Side note: If anyone in your life says "I like New Reddit", you have now identified a fundamental point of difference in taste with that person. Use this information wisely. Reddit needs to realize the asinine mistakes that they have made in this "redesign" that no one asked for. The moment they remove or screw with the old site in any way, I'm gone and never coming back. ---------------------------------------- [1] Just in case it isn't clear; this comment contains hyperbole for the sake of a little humor [2] https://github.com/tom-james-watson/old-reddit-redirect https://github.com/tom-james-watson/old-reddit-redirect
