## 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.
