Why YSK: Searching topcs on reddit was simple matter of entering desired term and prepending or appending keyword reddit. With lemmy’s decentralised structure finding particular topic without knowing to which, or rather if even there is community dealing with such topic(s) can be a headache inducing hurdle. So appending simple:

site: lemmy.*

site:lemmy.*

to Your google search feature can ease up search.

P.S.

to avoid certain domains You can use e.g.:

-site: beehaw.org

-site:beehaw.org

    Someperson shall createth a copypasta of these terms of search that shall be needed to search on ALL of the kingdom of lemmy and associates. Until then let us pray that answered questions and questioned answers shall not disappear in the never ending greatness that is lemmy, as information shall be needed as needed shall be information!

      Every browser supports adding custom search engines to the list. So you can prepare a query with all terms to be added and save it as a search engine. Fediverse search based on Google/Bing
