I notice that unless a post is really popular on Lemmy, when you make a search online. You won’t find it. Is there a reason for this and how do we make it so it’s as easy to access like Reddit?

    I think it’s the way the fediverse works, an inherit limitation, by the fact that it’s not all on one server that’s easily indexed.

    However we do have lemmy search:

      If only it allowed to search all the communities at once, since it can’t do that it’s not really helpful
