With reddit you could just add “reddit” or “site:reddit.com” to redirect google searches to reddit, but with lemmy it doesn’t seem to work. Is there a way to search useful information on Lemmy?
I just found a post on the Fediverse community, it shows a new search engine designed to replace google’s “site:reddit.com” search query. Hope it will work.
Here’s a post exactly for you:
I searched “musk lemmy”, ignoring the top results I got decent (considering the ages of the posts) results on Bing and Google.
I’ve noticed that lemmy is full of discussions about Twitter and Reddit, so that’s probably the reason these kind of posts show up, but with niche topics it’s a lot harder to find something. I’ve tried searching, even with the lemmy search engine, a post I made on c/Android using generic words, but I couldn’t find anything at all.
Re: niche topics, it’s going to be people building from the ground up. There’s probably nothing there, because SO MANY PEOPLE have been invested in reddit for so long. Sad.
So much money to be made if they had listened to me, Mr. Weirdo Fingers.
