I didn’t reply to this, but part of the reason why people type Reddit after a search is because more often than not it will yield the most useful results. This comes from the age and userbase size of Reddit. If you tried to do this with Lemmy odds are a good amount of the time you’ll end up without results or with less relevant results than from Reddit.

Assuming that a 500 dollar car won’t incur major expenses potentially exceeding its value within 6 months is a super risky bet.

Got it. I mean one thing about Reddit isn’t necessarily that it shows up in search results, but that people will go out of their way to append it to a search in order to get better results.

Elaborate?
