I thought that DDG and Kagi get a large amount of their results from Google? Do these have reddit results stripped out?

While a week is a long time, is it possible that the other search engines just hadn't got around to indexing it yet?

Kagi I don’t know much about, but quickly reading about it, seems to indeed pay Goog.

I doubt it, search engines these days are much faster, and this is double-confirmed by 1. articles linked in sibling comments, 2. reading https://www.reddit.com/robots.txt
