Whenever I want to find useful information on something i search the thing and add “reddit” to the end of my search. I would love to be able to do that with lemmy but currently it seems like nothing on lemmy gets picked up by google.
Seems like Qwant indexes lemmy
The robots.txt permits crawling too, so I’d guess yes.
interesting, I wonder why its so difficult to find threads when googling for them
by the way, how did you make the image pop out when clicked like that?
The spoiler markdown formatting:

At the bottom of the guide in the docs all supported formatting options are shown :)
Nice. Not documented that tables are also supported. CC @dessalines@lemmy.ml
head 1 head 2 1-1 1-2 2-1 2-2 | head 1 | head 2 | | :---: | :---: | | 1-1 | 1-2 | | 2-1 | 2-2 |
sweet!
thanks!
are they recursive?
yes!
yes it does! Apparently even smaller instances, like feddit.de
Lemmy has really good SEO, so I find it surprising how difficult it is to Google for individual threads. Perhaps the post title/text isn’t getting a high priority in the index for whatever reason?
Sopuli.xyz gets indexed pretty well by the looks. If I add sopuli on to the end of the search the post or community comes up first.
https://lemmy.ml sidebar shows “4.49K Communities; 129K Posts; 557K Comments” Maybe only admin can discover accurate number of indexed pages by adding their site into a Google/Bing webmaster tools and verifying the site ownership.
