The search autocompletes almost every other recent term I used. It's not a recency issue.
In defense of Reddit (yuck), if there's been one constant in all the years of its existence, it's been that their search is the worst. Not saying it's not intentional, cause it probably is, but damn if they've not worked hard to establish plausible deniability.
It's entirely possible the index for type-ahead search is not refreshed all the time but every day or week, which means it'll lag on words that weren't in the news a day ago
Yes this makes total sense for a site like reddit where topical elements trend..
Have to agree. Always has and will be ass.
I checked other (non-political) recent keywords and it seems to be doing ok.
Fuck reddit.
And fuck spez
On any other search engine:
site:reddit.com alex prettiGood old advanced search + operators!
It is not far fetched but how do we know for sure it is intentional?
We no longer live in a world where we can automatically assume idiocy over malice.
the saying was always ended with "but don't rule out malice"
Accuse them of it being intentional and you might get an answer.
Give them excuses and you never will.
Also its intentional.
Can't pronounce Reddit without Edit
Works for me...
I'm hardly ever on Reddit anymore because Lemmy is so much better, but this isn't a Reddit issue.
Yeah; it just didnt refresh to the latest searches
I can't reproduce this. Maybe it's something at your end?
"Manufactured consent, not just for CBS anymore!"
Well. They use a "most recent/most common " search term suggestion. You are free to continue typing in whatever you'd like. No one is censoring or hiding anything.
They will however ban you for comments that the ai bots mistake as violence or against their terms of service.
