    I especially hate that using the time limiter on google search set to 1 week or month and all the Reddit posts are from 5-7 years ago. It used to be you could convince google to find what you wanted since Reddit search sucks but even that is dying. Maybe they can put ads on the “close my account forever” page.

    This has been a thing for a while. I think (though I’m not sure) it’s because the signed out page has recommended posts, which tend to be more recent. Google’s scraper then uses the more recent times on the search page, for some reason.
