Situatie
Reddit users have been clamoring for the ability to search comments for years, and now the social media website has rolled out the feature site-wide. Filtering searches by comment means less time scrolling results and more efficient searches.
In the early stages of the rollout, comment search is limited to the desktop website and is unavailable via mobile apps on iPhone and Android. The feature has been rolled into the standard Reddit search engine, which you can access at the top of the page at Reddit.com.

To use the feature, open Reddit in your browser and enter a keyword into the search field provided. Hit Enter to search, then use the “Comments” button at the top of the page to limit results to comments made on the site.
You can also filter by subreddit using the magnifying glass to the left of the search field. You’ll see your chosen subreddit appear in the box. Type your query next to it and hit enter, then use the “Comments” button to limit your search.
Unfortunately, you can’t use Reddit’s comment search tool to filter by user, but you can try a third-party service like Reddit Comment Search to unlock this feature. Because the site isn’t run by Reddit, it tends to not be very reliable.
While Reddit’s comment search is indexed on the server-side, third-party services have to trawl the website with each search. This often fails or takes a long time, since it’s impractical for an external service to keep comments archived.
