Hopefully this kind of content is ok here. Up until recently, when I would be searching for some kind of technical info, the top (and best) results would usually all be Reddit posts. I was very pleasantly surprised to do that this time and find a Lemmy post instead!
...It did happen to be a post from me, so unfortunately didn't answer my question at all, but I still thought it was really neat and wanted to share. Has anyone else seen Lemmy stuff getting indexed and turning up in their search results?
Huh did Google start indexing lemmy?
Funnily enough my own instance has a such a bad SEO that when I searched up my username (to find out what is out there) I found all other instances my comments got copied to but not my own freaking instance.
Oh well. Yes Google does index instances but how well and often is another story.
I honestly don't think Google crawlers knows how to index the fediverse but I am kind of talking out of my ass rn.
Fediverse is just another website. It literally finds my username on many other instances posts got replicated to.
