After watching the 2nd episode of 11th season of Futurama, I googled "Futurama S11E02 discussion" (without quotes) and Lemmy.world was the 2nd result. We can do it, guys. - Lemmy.ca
lemmy.ca

To see the discussion, you can see

Alternatively, here is the screenshot from the post.

I also wanted to share this tip for how you can find Lemmy posts:

  • Search using site:home_instance. So if I wanted to find recommended phones, I could go site:lemmy.ca recommended phones. Because every instance has its own collection of posts, you will be getting all content on Lemmy (that is available from your home instance).

Question to everyone, what does Lemmy need to make it easier for people to find content? What are the implications of the Fediverse on how people might find content in the future?

One thing is that people are more likely to get posts from the larger instances, likely because more people are linking to them and opening those links? Another thought was the common complaint about how our post links aren’t community specific. While I can search for posts using the method above, I can’t search within a specific community like I can with Reddit (ex. I can’t search site:lemmy.ca/c/Vancouver recommended restaurants

    Swag. The more we show up in search, the more people will be asking “what the heck is Lemmy?” Some of 'em will join.

    Well then. Here. We. Go.

      I have been regularly sharing shit with friends that I see in Lemmy, and they always said to me why my links always have weird domains and shit… so I proceed to explain and we get to nowhere.

      Anyway this is people that weren’t even into Reddit, so that people are the harder to get, IMHO.
