News and Discussions about Reddit
Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules
Rule 1- No brigading.

**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Kagi can do this by default, without having to hope that a random extension doesn't one day suddenly decides to update into a infostealer. In general, apart from the few super popular ones, installing a random extension that can do the random niche thing you need is a pretty big risk.
I speak from experience, few years ago the developer of Nano Defender, which was at the time better at avoiding anti-adblock scripts, decided to sell/handout the extension to someone, who turned it into a cookie/info stealer, which got through automatic update and started wreaking havoc on everything I had logged in. Since then, I avoid extensions as much as possible.
As for Reddit having the answers - nah, never had an issue with finding what I need without reddit, for the last year I stopped using it, and in the few cases I didn't and resorted to turning off my vpn and looking at the thread, it was a mix of adverts pushing their product masquerading as comments, deleted or edited relics of the exodus, straith up wrong suggestions, and in general it didn't help me at all.
