Hello all. Like many new users, I am a reddit refugee. Please forgive me if this isn’t the best community for my question; I am still learning my way around here.
I am used to google searching “[THING] site:reddit.com” when I want to see the opinions of real people on a topic rather than the flood of clickbait articles you get nowadays with Google.
What is the best way to execute this type of search within the Fediverse rather than Reddit?
I am used to google searching “[THING] site:reddit.com”
Might pick a few good representative instances on lemmy, mastodon, etc, then make a compound search:
site:lemmy.ml OR site:mastodon.social [thing]
then set up a search keyword like fs
for it so you could type fs
This sounds reasonable. Hopefully comments are indexed in a way that Google still works. I’ve never heard of setting up a search keyword like that; looks kind of like a Unix alias. How do you do that?
