So... How is Lemmy set for SEO?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (4 children)

SEO as a concept needs to die. dont get me wrong i want Lemmy to show up in google results but doing that by spamming keywords and unrelated “related” posits is not the move

kinda think we need a search engine that can index fedirated sites . like lemmy /mastedon /pleroma .etc .etc

searching for help with technical /specific things has become a nightmare .as al the usefull subreddits have gone dark due to the ongoing protest . making google not so helpfull at all to use

Before reddit removed them most of this compiled knowledge was in the subreddit wikis. I honestly believe a return to communities with wikis is the long term replacement.

Honestly, not a bad opinion, when the wikis were done well, they did have some extremely useful information. I wonder if we could do something like that in Lemmy...

Yeah, the wikis came in clutch a lot of times for me. Really well done with how organized they were for the ones that had them.

People rely far too heavily on reddit for public resources. Here's hoping that changes now.

Didn't notice since I use Kagi...

I did notice that Kagi now informs us about how much tracking and shit the sites are using. It's an info badge for each url.

Never heard about Kagi before, thanks for mentioning it! How is your experience with it? I tried DuckDuckGo for a while and wasn't to happy about it. Is it comparable?
