Reddit is blocking me with no way around it now.

Firefox on Linux.

This is not old Reddit.

Tried zapping with ublock and disabling ublock with no luck.

Tried to curl the page and that didn't work either.

Anyone know of a Firefox plug-in to remove reddit from search results on DDG?

I guess they can't really call themselves "the front page of the internet" now that they're throwing everything behind a login wall, but damn, I can't imagine something more soulless and uninteresting than that line.

You can block any domain directly within DDG's search page. Just click the three dots next to a result and then "Block this site from all results".

Here's DDG's help page: How To Block Sites From Appearing in DuckDuckGo Search Results

It's also hilarious because it's overrun with bots and AI generated content.

Boggles my mind how people engage with posts that are very obviously AI and tailored to bait a reaction. When someone points this out they get replies along the lines of "so what?" because people don't really care anymore if anything is real.

In this context it is a wild slogan to choose.

They don't want you. Why do you want them?

If you need a thread from it, take advantage of duck.ai and if you don't want it to summarize the thread just tell it to copy and paste every reply.

This isn't an ad for duck or ai but fuck ai and fuck Google and most importantly fuck Reddit. So here ya go!

You're only limited to 5 blocked domains for some reason.
