The article writer didnt' look carefully at the graph, which says in fine print at the bottom, "Y-axes are not comparable, charts show when* each had its own peak search interest. Data Source: Google Trends"

So, it is a mistake to assume that the quantity of the searches can be shared between the different graphs. Unless there is another data source that shows Reddit has the most searches, this is not meaningful. Actually, the graph is a Google graph, so everything on the graph is from a Google Search.
