@dave_cochran Google has prioritized Reddit content in search results. So, when people make things private or delete them, google searches become unusable.

@zoomar Can you give an example query? I've definitely heard people say that most of their search results are Reddit these days, but I almost never get Reddit; I assume I'm searching in domains where Reddit hasn't dominated the index and I'd be curious to know where it is.

@mtomczak @zoomar it's not that the results are dominated by reddit. to bypass pages upon pages of SEO spam, you put in your query followed by "site:reddit.com" and then you (usually) good info.

@argentcorvid Oh. I guess I'm just having my searches successfully satisfied by SEO spam then.
