This just started yesterday or the day before. I use Firefox with Duckduckgo as a search engine. I wanted to look something up so I put the classical “reddit” at the end of my question. I couldnt find reddit at all. I was confused at first.

After searching it up I found out that reddit would only be indexed if you are using the google search engine. No more. I used to love reddit but now I’m tired of the website.

Lemmy for life!

    It would not be on top of Google regardless, because it isn’t paying for the ad slot there.

      I recently had a very specific issue with KDE and the first and actually helpful result was a thread from a Lemmy instance. Never had this happen before, but it’s a good sign.
