"If you use Bing, DuckDuckGo, Mojeek, Qwant or any other alternative search engine that doesn't rely on Google's indexing and search Reddit by using "site:reddit.com," you will not see any results from the last week."

The veracity of this statement is questionable.

I found at least four web search engines not using Google's index that produced results from the last week.

Example: Recent eruption at Yellowstone Black Diamond Pool

https://www.ecosia.org/search?method=index&q=site:reddit.com...

https://search.brave.com/search?q=reddit.com+black+diamond+p...

https://api.yep.com/fs/2/search?client=web&gl=all&no_correct...

   POST /sp/search HTTP/1.0
   host: www.startpage.com
   content-length: 74
   content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
   query=site:reddit.com black diamond pool&abp=-1&t=&lui=english&sc=&cat=web

At least for this example, I got the same desired result using Reddit site search.

If anyone has some good examples of search queries that I can test showing why a search engine must be used, please share.
