    do Reddit admins think they have any kind of search function without using Google and site:reddit.com?

      They think they have a great app without third party developers, so probably. :/

        Are they using their own search function to find a fix?

          I see people in this thread say they never had a problem with the search feature but honestly personally I always used Google

            It was good for certain situations, such as obscure subreddits and google was good for others.

            They both had their benefits and drawbacks.
