A great use for reddit is the ability to search posts and opinions about any niche topic. Will that be possible with Lemmy as it grows? Will I be able to Google “instant rice Lemmy” and get a comprehensive tier list of each brand?
I imagine search engines will have trouble with all the different instances(?). EDIT: Especially with instances that don’t have Lemmy in their name, I don’t think search engines would return them for Lemmy searches?
Brave is an advertising company and should not be preferred.
By that standard, so is DuckDuckGo, Qwant or Ecosia. Until we have a good federated search service, we’ll have to deal with them and pray they don’t enshittify like Google.
