The search autocompletes almost every other recent term I used. It’s not a recency issue.

    In defense of Reddit (yuck), if there’s been one constant in all the years of its existence, it’s been that their search is the worst. Not saying it’s not intentional, cause it probably is, but damn if they’ve not worked hard to establish plausible deniability.

      To the downvoters of this: seriously, you are not ready for someone not to know everything? Not knowing doesn’t mean not caring - I don’t remember the previous victim’s name, but that doesn’t mean that I don’t care that she was murdered

        I don’t blame them for not knowing, I’m blaming them for not doing the fucking bare minimum of just looking the name up first.

          Most services, including Lemmy, have an infinite wall of posts. Checking every name would be a full-time job. And writing a title “John Doe who is/was/will be (explanation), (what happened/will happen)” is super easy, as you have to write something anyway

            If you have enough interest to make a comment on a post you should have enough interest to open up another window and quickly put a name into a search engine. It’s pathetically easy.

            If I’m going to waste my fucking life writing a dumb question I’ll have to take time to check back on that would make me an idiot when Google is right fucking there.

            I assume all of those comments are meant to pretend like it’s not important. It’s 2026. Come the fuck on.

      If I’m not mistaken it’s the guy who was most recently been killed by the ICE agents in the US. Notable fact is that he was a US citizen.

        IMO, notable fact is that this was an arbitrary execution :

        He was disarmed (carried a concealed gun but it was taken away from him in the moments leading to his death)

        He was not resisting (although there was a bit of scuffling, he quickly ended up cowering on the ground, both hands on the ground).

        The ICE agents could not have really feel threatened in any way (a single woman in company of Alex, pepper sprayed and being restrained, a sparse number of onlookers filming some distance away, probably less then the total number of agents).

        Something like a full charger was unloaded into the victim.

    Works for me…

    I’m hardly ever on Reddit anymore because Lemmy is so much better, but this isn’t a Reddit issue.
