What good does it do us when we respect robots.txt, publish our IPs, and do not donate to any such; nor would if we could. As for the Google-Reddit deal, I can't now say more than this: www.404media.co/google-is-th...
Google Is the Only Search Engine That Works on Reddit Now Thanks to AI Deal
DuckDuckGo, Bing, Mojeek, and other search engines are not returning full Reddit results any more.

Almost certainly not. Perplexity will have switched. Bing racked up their prices and restricted usage of Bing API with LLMs in mid-2023. Brave didn't have a search API then but have now.

You might argue it's now too easy to "make something people want". For example, small biz want leads and we now have more and more lead gen pimpers; selling data that is likely to be crap and unethically collected.
