I've posted this elsewhere, but it bears repeating:

Just use ddg bangs if you use Duckduckgo and you can search reddit directly.

!reddit search term

or:

!r search term

It still picks up latest posts related to reddit, it just searches reddit directly instead of searching Bing's results. It's that simple.

You can even use a redirect extension like Libredirect in conjunction with this Duckduckgo feature to redirect your search to a privacy respecting frontend like redlib.

Libredirect is great, just added it to firefox! I can finally watch all those tiktok links people send me lol

& for anyone else thinking of trying it, if a site won't load change your default proxy instance :)

Yeah, I do wish they incorporated nitter as well, but otherwise it's got every privacy respecting frontend and has a lot of public instances in their default listings. One of the best extensions I've come across.
