I even have diverse reddit queries from last week and even 2 years ago. this workaround is still ok tbh
Based on my testing if you filter results by the last week or last day you get nothing. Past month works.
For old posts. I can't find new posts on DDG. I find them on Google but not on DDG.
I tried brave search begin with site:reddit.com test and it still works
