How long does it usually take for google to index websites? Because I tried the string lemmy site:lemmy.ml after:2023-06-15 and only one post turned up for me and it was Memes… the current state of affairs does not seem promising 😔 And if I tried with another instance with the same keywords lemmy site:kbin.social after:2023-06-15 nothing even turned up.
I wonder though, will search engines adapt to Lemmy and its fediverse system? Or will search engines die? Or will we see dedicated search engines to search through the fediverse?
I’ve had better results searching through the instances themselves because Google doesn’t always index the keywords on time. On caveat of this method is that if the instance doesn’t have the syncing out the instance where the info is from being propagated, then this trick would not work
