    If you need something related to daily life/hobby then use “site:reddit.com [search here]” honestly reddit still contains decent results about niche topics.

    If you are searching for news items you almost need to use “before:[date]” for better context otherwise its impossible to find useful information, every news article is filled with SEO mumbo jambo and makes every news about a topic today the same as it was years ago and that is not what you want.

    Otherwise unless you end up searching for something with a reasonable wikipedia page that is your destination most of the time because every other alternative is as bad or worse.

      This is the entire fix to Google. Nearly every complex question is better with site:reddit.com

      If you think Reddit is bad, you haven’t seen dozens of regurgitated blog articles stretched out by banner ads
