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!

Not working for me
This is bizarre.
I’m using the DDG search engine in the DDG browser and I’m getting reddit results with your search. The only difference was I didn’t choose Canada as my region. I tried Canada(en), I tried all safe search options, and I tried Canada (fr) and each time I got Reddit as my first search results.
I tried “All regions” but didnt get anything as well. I’ll be trying the DDG browser, thank you for your input
Edit: tried it, didnt work. Reddit is no more for me I feel like
The changes must not be rolled out uniformly. I still get Reddit results that are less than a month old. If it weren’t being reported as a deliberate decision, I would’ve assumed this was just A/B testing.
