One of the best things about reddit was looking for answers or other users with the same problem as you, and since Google didn’t really help with that anymore and instead insisted on giving you business results, the best practice was to put your search terms in followed by ‘reddit’ and you’d find your answer.

    I don’t understand. I looked at your screenshot again and the search field seems to show feddit.de: Musk. This is not the site: syntax. What I suggested was Musk site:feddit.de. Am I missing something?

        It’s fine if you don’t want to use the syntax, but using it would solve your problem with keyword autocorrect and properly filter your results to only the website you’ve asked for.
