Anyone actually uses Reddit search? That thing has been so horribly broken since the very beginning that some of the best subreddits (AskHistorians, for example) openly recommend using a standard search engine with the “site:reddit.com” parameter.
It’s depressingly hilarious how awful the search is. I don’t think anyone could make a worse search if they tried. Half the time it doesn’t even work for exact matches.
Back when I used to visit that site and tried the search, it was pretty much on par with Outlook’s search. You couldn’t find what you were looking for, basically.
No, its useless, i suspect they made it that way so people would use google to search for specific reddit question, and of course the question you typed in google is what pops up for the question you are looking for 90% of the time.

I didn’t think they could make it worse… But apparently they found a way, according to the title of this story. 😄
Windows start menu search exists

Outlook at least works if the keyword is in the subject line. Reddit search can’t even do that.
😂 pathetic
