I did a couple of searches with duckduckgo and google, finding that unlike reddit it doesnt really suggest posts on lemmy, just whole communities. Im curious if this is unavoidable with this number of users or if there is a way to make search engines suggest better lemmy results and make the resources accumulating here useful for a broader audience.

  • I suspect that Google could do it, but won’t. When they ditched “Don’t be evil” as their corporate motto, they went all the way. Alphabet is as evil as they come. The Fediverse isn’t a giant corporation, and Reddit is. So Google won’t be doing us any favors. It’s that simple.
