Lemmy posts are starting to pop up on search results for Google (+ other search engines) - Lemmy.ca

To see the discussion, you can see - One of the top posts right now on [email protected] [/c/[email protected]] - This thread: https://lemmy.ca/post/8488573 [https://lemmy.ca/post/8488573] - To see it on your instance, use an app, frontend, or [email protected] [/c/[email protected]] browser extension) Alternatively, here is the screenshot [https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/1a8bfa9f-1bc8-433d-8a3e-323fbc775736.png?format=webp] from the post. — I also wanted to share this tip for how you can find Lemmy posts: - Search using site:home_instance. So if I wanted to find recommended phones, I could go site:lemmy.ca recommended phones. Because every instance has its own collection of posts, you will be getting all content on Lemmy (that is available from your home instance). — Question to everyone, what does Lemmy need to make it easier for people to find content? What are the implications of the Fediverse on how people might find content in the future? One thing is that people are more likely to get posts from the larger instances, likely because more people are linking to them and opening those links? Another thought was the common complaint about how our post links aren’t community specific. While I can search for posts using the method above, I can’t search within a specific community like I can with Reddit (ex. I can’t search site:lemmy.ca/c/Vancouver recommended restaurants

Reddit is talking about hiding Reddit from Google. I hope they do that because it will let Lemmy start to replace Reddit as the go to source for non-SEO, real-human answers.
One of the main reasons reddit mega turned to shit was due to far too many people joining and using it, granted this is due to mobile phones but is it really worth it to attract more and more people? These instances are run by average people not corps with money they can easily collapse under tuw burden of to many
This anti user attitude is so lame. It’s some real hipster nonsense.

It’s really not, when it’s been proven time and time again that more people doing something ruin that something it should become obvious that lots and lots of people is a detriment

The reddit front page is a classic example of that, the general state of the internet proves it too, beaches/music festivles are both great examples too

That’s not even thinking about the cost of everything and corporate meddling either

It is so fascinating to me there are people out there who really mistake their own subjective experiences as iron objective truths. Just a complete lack of self awareness. It’s like how babies lack object permanence.
I like how you ignored the examples I gave you

As we know, listing examples constitutes proof.

Hey bud, I think you should read this: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof_by_assertion
