I am sorry the question is confusing.

But some Google searches give much better results if you add “reddit” to the end of your query. This ends up generating a lot of traffic for Reddit.

Anyone found a way to search something but hint Google to look at Lemmy?

    Kagi or some other search engine has a “search the fediverse” option now I think. Pretty sure I saw a post a few days ago

      One day I will be able to afford a subscription based search engine…

        kagi’s like $5/mo right? I get everyone has different ideas of what’s expensive, but if you really value it that does not seem like a very steep cost. Especially compared to your privacy/data. There’s nothing that cost $5/mo or more you could cut for this?

          I wish I could… Gladly this isn’t the one and only way to protect ones data & privacy. And about 10 searches per day for 5$+ taxes is not going to be enough searches for me. The most convincing point is proper search results in my opinion. But again, 10$ +taxes for a search engine is not a recurring cost I will add to the bunch.

      Has had it for a while and can easily be toggled between normal search and lemmy search, forums, academic, pdfs, etc. It’s glorious.
