I don't think iw oild be unreasonable for someone to make a search engine that is specifically for indexing lemmy posts. Seems like it would be a good addition to the lemmyverse site
It already exists https://search-lemmy.com
But you have to choose the instance you're searching, that's the opposite of what I want, I want to search all instances, or at least the top 100 or something, all at once
It does search all instances, the instance choosing is so links open in your preferred instance. Try it, you'll see
Sadly, it doesn't :(
sopuli.xyz search vs lemmy.world
That difference is probably because it respects which instances your chosen instance federates with. (It has to, to open it there)
I imagine that's easy to change for people who really want to search everything
I agree
Oh man, it's like when the search engines were battling back in the day. We need a Lemmy version of MetaCrawler.
Dogpile!
