Yes, that's why before Reddit went to shit we all added "reddit" to the search terms. I do miss the old web a lot.
The thing that made Reddit valuable was that it was a bastion of user-generated content. To a great extent, it still is... Unless you happen to be avoiding their website for ethical reasons, which is understandable.
That's also why they're trying to hold on to it by any means necessary; they know that the software itself isn't any good without the data that has been generated using it.
I hope Lemmy search functionality gets better. Right now, it's pretty slow from an instance, and I haven't ever seen its stuff pop up in a conventional search engine.
