If you don’t want to see Reddit ever again in search like I did, you can follow these steps:

Step 1: Install the extension from the Firefox store.

Step 2: Search Reddit.

Step 3: On your first search result drag your cursor over to the right on the drop-down arrow and select the crossed out eye.

Step 4: Hide all the Reddit suggestions on your first page.

Step 5: Now you won’t hear a beep again from that Snoo.

    I don’t like Reddit as a company and stopped using the site actively. But when I research on niche topics, I often appreciate the answers from Reddit in my search results. From my experience, Reddit often is the single source or at least a very valuable entry point to dig deeper into a certain area. As I block all the ads, I also don’t think that Reddit as a company can benefit much from me as a user.

      You can always open a different browser or have the extension only enabled for the regular tabs then go into incognito for that besides allowing Reddit to show up pollutes the results from the Lemmy answers.
