Found a good image explanation of this whole thing.

    Right now i’ve had an issue myself where the potential answer to my issue is in a privated subreddit. So, i had to search even more. Frankly, it highlights the downside of having this become a thing. So i am on the fence whether i want that to happen at all.

      If you see the Google results on reddit for what you are looking for, you can click the three dots and look at the cached pages of reddit on Google

      Totally understand this. I’m working on setting up my steam deck, and decided to go the Windows only route with it. Well, the main place for all things windows on the steamdeck is reddit. Youtube’s search means it’s a needle in a haystack for specific questions I have, since the overwhelming majority of people using the steamdeck are using SteamOS on it. It’s really put me at a loss when it comes to getting answers, until that sub comes back up. I just hope that data can be migrated somewhere else, since I don’t want to support reddit but I DO want to engage heavily with that community.
