What's the best way to search something on Lemmy? - eviltoast

With reddit you could just add “reddit” or “site:reddit.com” to redirect google searches to reddit, but with lemmy it doesn’t seem to work. Is there a way to search useful information on Lemmy?

    Re: niche topics, it’s going to be people building from the ground up. There’s probably nothing there, because SO MANY PEOPLE have been invested in reddit for so long. Sad.

    So much money to be made if they had listened to me, Mr. Weirdo Fingers.

      Unfortunatly tons of data are still on reddit and I think it will be hard to recover them. There are some people who scrapped terabytes of posts and comments from Reddit so I hope they will be of some use in the future. Anyways, I should try finding more niche communities and engage with them

        You betcha all that archived content is valuable. It’s already happening on Lemmy with bots. But not in a way that makes sense. they’re pretending engagement.
