Reddit recently accepted an $150 million investment from a Chinese company, Tencent. Now, r/Hong_Kong, a pro china subreddit with only 1.6k subscribers, shows up first when searching for r/HongKong. r/HongKong doesnt even show up when typing a search.

Okay, so I tried it without using a Reddit account. It turns out, Reddit search just sucks...

Noticed this too, searched hongkong and had to click search to find, but hong_kong showed up in auto fill

I just searched "Hong Kong" on reddit.com using firefox focus without logging in, and it returned:

r/hongkong r/cityporn r/china

Update (12:43 GMT): I tried it again, this time using Tor Browser, to avoid my region. Exactly the same result in the same order.

Let's not waste any more time with all this side-show bait.

Everyone should be paying attention to this Citizen Press Conference instead, time 23'13".
