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?

    I currently don’t do that (can not replace the treasure trove in reddit yet) but you can edit default search engine url and add something like

    site:lemmy.world/ site:lemmy.ml/ site:lemm.ee/ site:sh.itjust.works/ site:lemmy.dbzer0.com/ site:lemmy.ca/ site:programming.dev/ site:lemmy.blahaj.zone/ site:discuss.tchncs.de/ site:spouli.xyz/

    and make a seperate search engine shortcut for this. But as others have said, google is not great for this.

    If you use searxng, then you can also include instance searches in default results . There is a seperate social media page(just like you have image or video tab), enable lemmy and mastodon stuff and use that.
