One of the best things about reddit was looking for answers or other users with the same problem as you, and since Google didn’t really help with that anymore and instead insisted on giving you business results, the best practice was to put your search terms in followed by ‘reddit’ and you’d find your answer.

    I’m working on a specialized search engine just for the fediverse. https://github.com/marsara9/lemmy-search

    If anyone wants to help out, feel free to reach out, but I hope to have something ready to release soon.

    The idea with my version is that it’ll search as much of Lemmy / the fediverse as it can and you can select the preferred instance that you want to open any link with.

      Why are people using a site named after the place they purposefully left with just one letter changed?

        Presumably because reddit itself has a lot of positivity and memories attached to it for a lot of people - it wasn’t the site that people wanted to leave, but rather the ceo and staff behind it.
