Every time I write a search query like "best tool for X" or "alternative to X", I use Kagi instead of Google. Because Google results for those kind of queries tend to be SEO optimized articles where the first recommended thing is the advert. Or even worse, I get some sort of spam/scam sites that get paid to shill stuff. I think got conditioned with bad Google results to not do it for those kind of queries.

For all other searches, Google seems good enough.

Just add "site:reddit.com" to the query. Without it, Google results are nothing but junk and spam.

On Kagi, you can just use the 'forums' lens, which will include Reddit but also results from other forums you might not have known existed. It's my favorite lens.
