Overview

Reddit adds public community discussion, user experience reports, troubleshooting threads, and debate-oriented evidence through the unauthenticated

search.json

endpoint. It is useful when the query needs candid practitioner commentary or consumer sentiment that is less polished than docs, vendor content, or editorial articles.

Known Quirks

Reddit blocks default client signatures, so requests must set a non-empty custom User-Agent.
The public endpoint is relatively open, but this channel keeps a conservative rate limit to stay polite.
The unauthenticated search API supports broad search well enough for this use case, but it does not provide reliable time-range filtering.

Quality Bar

Evidence items have non-empty title and url.
No crash on empty or malformed API response.
Source channel field matches the channel name.
