This is actually a good sign that Google is taking steps to fix their broken search engine. All it seems to deliver anymore as SEO-optimized crap "blogs" with affiliate links. Linking to Reddit without the user having to include "reddit" in the search is a sign they're actually trying to deliver good results again.

You can use -

intext:"modlog" & "instances" & "docs" & "code" & "join lemmy"

Just pin it in clipboard. Use it after search to get results from across Lemmy
