It’s crazy, I never noticed before. I wanted to search something about a game yesterday and the first five hits were Reddit threads, the others were clickbait. And I didn’t even append “reddit” as a search term. It was a simple search.
I wonder if that is a Google thing (or if you use another provider) I use duck duck go (been doing it for many many years now) and almost never see any reddit threads if I don’t search for them. For example if I search for something specific for a game do I get a lot of the games wiki pages and articals from ign or some private persons blog or even videos on youtube. Just for fun did I now search for “reddit api change” there is only one link to reddit and it is almost at the end of the first page with only two other links bellow it 😂
no, i know that, what i meant was, specifically, to search for organic content, which is the value of Reddit, that it is content made by users for users, not by SEO clickbait corporations filling the internet with mediocre content. My idea is that there should be other keywords that are not site:reddit.com that also provide a certain increase in quality results for your questions.

There must be other terms. I don’t know them but there should be other ways of searching organic content outside of reddit.
You can append -reddit to your search and it hides all non reddit resultsy idk if that was what you meant
