Google Is the Only Search Engine That Works on Reddit Now Thanks to AI Deal

Bishma , 8 hours ago (edited 8 hours ago)

DDG is a metasearch engine uses Google as a primary search sources, so this would indicate Google is not returning search data to its own APIs.

I feared AI would lead to this, so hopefully I’m jumping to conclusions. DDG, searxng, kagi, and most other alternative search engines rely on this API.

Never mind me. DDG doesn’t use google api after all.

i like how the only reason i’d use reddit is to search “site:reddit.com/r/thesimpsons <random simpsons quote>” to see what the simpsons reddit says about the episode.

I have not actually been able to use any Reddit results for awhile. It might be that I force old[.]reddit[.]com and Reddit has finally cracked down on that?
