Yes and no. No, it’s not Reddit doing it. Yes, Google is strongly favoring reddit results. They are combating AI content in this manner.

Google searches are becoming worthless more and more. This may be the beginning of the end for them unless users quickly adopt their generative search approach when they release it.
