I also recall that, but it’s just another instance of Reddit contradicting Reddit.

    Or more realistically: Reddit from 10 years ago contradicting Reddit from today.

    For what its worth the reddit search function seemed to have functioned much better a decade ago.

    The amount of spam and just downright completely irrelevant results that showed up regularly in searches there the last few years has been ridiculous. I think it changed around the time they took away being able to see how many upvotws and downvotes a comment had totally, which I do still think is a real shame they took that away.

    Yeah Reddit search was fine on the original old Reddit UI, it was around the time the native app released that it really started to shit itself and not return any results and just say try again later
