%%excerpt%% Reddit has commenced its assault on search engines, blocking those that don’t have a commercial relationship with the company, like Google.
I saw Reddit results in a search last night using DDG. It just said something like “It’s here on Reddit, but we’re not allowed to show you.” I wasn’t planning on using Reddit (never again), but that just irritated me.
as a DDG user can confirm. if you search for something and a reddit result comes up it literally will just say “reddit.com” in the description. so it’s a crap shoot if you click on it or not.
All that being said you CAN filter out if reddit results even show up in your search engine of choice using this extension: https://github.com/iorate/uBlacklist
