Please change the search results so that when I search "X + reddit" all of the search results are reddit, not just the first two.

Actually, now that you mention it, maybe that's my problem with SO searches I called out in another post. Maybe they've got some kind of same-source limit that becomes a major hindrance when you expect most results to be from a single source. I almost never get more than two SO links for a search on DDG, and very often neither is what I need—Google gives me a bunch more, and usually at least one is helpful. And it hadn't occurred to me, but I often end up tossing in a "!g" to reddit searches for a similar reason: not enough results are from Reddit, on DDG. (yes, I could probably do some kind of "site:reddit.com" or something, but "!g" is faster to type and gets the job done)

Have you been using the new button we put there to do that? (I realize you still have to press the button, but curious if you are liking it.)

what button? I must be blind...

This would be very useful because "x reddit" is probably my most common search

Sorry, looks like this new feature is being re-tooled today, but should be up again within a few days!

I personally just use "X site:reddit.com". It's more verbose, but it does what you want.

EDIT: There's also a !bang that does the same thing: !ddgr

what's wrong with site:reddit.com $search1 $search2 ?
