This is not nearly a direct copy of your product. This one features a well designed UX that immediately engages and encourages further exploration. Yours made me bounce in 2 seconds.

A product can still be copied in functionality without being copied in design. The general premise (product recommendations from Reddit) is the same. I also agree my UX is bad. I have been meaning to pivot with all the data I already have but haven't gotten there yet.

Not complaining, competition is good. Just giving warning and bringing up discussion.

I searched for laptop (as suggested) and got webcams and other stuff, doesn't really seem curated at all?

The keyword searching was really bad, agreed. Akin to trying to search on Craigslist with ads having a giant list of keywords in them.

Agreed entirely. Amazon search is better than this one.
