A great use for reddit is the ability to search posts and opinions about any niche topic. Will that be possible with Lemmy as it grows? Will I be able to Google “instant rice Lemmy” and get a comprehensive tier list of each brand?

I imagine search engines will have trouble with all the different instances(?). EDIT: Especially with instances that don’t have Lemmy in their name, I don’t think search engines would return them for Lemmy searches?

    Brave Search would be better, they have a dedicated section on the results page for discussions.

      Brave is an advertising company and should not be preferred.

        By that standard, so is DuckDuckGo, Qwant or Ecosia. Until we have a good federated search service, we’ll have to deal with them and pray they don’t enshittify like Google.
