oh no, Reddit is like, the only way to have google still be useful.

[–] germanatlas@lemmy.blahaj.zone 54 points 10 months ago

Funnily enough, google is also the only way to have Reddit be useful.

Their own search function has been nothing but garbage.

That's the catch, Google made a deal with Reddit and remains the only search engine allowed to access its data for indexing. It cuts off every other search engine

Tell me that there is an anti trust suit over this.

[–] GroupNebula563@lemmy.world 26 points 10 months ago

There's a suit over google in general so this may well be part of it

really? ddg will show me reddit links, did they have to make a webscraper or something

[–] morgunkorn@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 10 months ago

There's a cutoff date, anything indexed before the robots.txt was changed stays in the index

Good news! Google paid up and still has access I'm pretty sure.

[–] GroupNebula563@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

That's bad news, that means the internet is dying

[–] princessnorah@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Sorry, the /s was sort of implied.

[–] GroupNebula563@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Ah, sorry. I have trouble with that sometimes :P
