    Same here.

    Interestingly back when myself & others were moderating subs on Reddit, & we locked the subs during the protests, the majority of PMs us mods would receive were from randoms that found a link via Google or wherever & were trying to view the post. It did make me wonder how often people browse Reddit just because they stumbled into a link via Google or whatever search engine.

    I can’t see how Reddit would survive without the big search engines, without those random visitors the ad revenue would plummet.
