Better search results on major search engines. Not gonna sit here and act like I know what I’m talking about but the major benefit of Reddit was being able to search a question and add “reddit” to the search and getting relevant results from years of posts.
I’d love to see lemmy reach that point as thats honestly been my only reason to open reddit recently
Searching from within Reddit has always been terrible, Lemmy's internal search is very slightly better imo to that low bar. Search engine results are an interesting challenge just because of the way federation works, it's information accessible from all sorts of pages.
I'd imagine to get something like that to work, we'd need a proper "Fedisearch" tool that can crawl and aggregate content across the entire ActivityPub Fediverse to reduce duplication, then search engines would hook into those results, rather than trying to make the Fediverse compatible with SEO algorithms.
So much this!
It's really hard to find someone here who can engage in a healthy discussion, it's ad hominem over and over and over again (not even talking about downvotes, as I don't really care about those funny nunbers)..
And I really don't get it, is it Lemmy specific thing for some reason? Why? It's so absurd, that I think even /pol/ despite everything that is going on there has better discussion to noise ratio.. :/
