Brave search got an option for that.
begin with site:reddit.com test is much more accurate to get reddit search on brave search tbh
Someone should make this feature but for ALL public web content you browse. Just download an extension to share the content of pages you browse to everyone (with cross-checking for accuracy), and you can view a fair share of what others have shared based on how much you contributed to the platform yourself. Basically crowd-sourced, unblockable web scraping.
We need that for DDG. Opt-in, of course, but with a banner that makes it clear why is that really needed
