Sorry if this has been asked already, but I'm struggling with my google skills and fediverse right now

How should I approach googling if I want to look for answers in the fediverse?

With reddit, I just used "whatever i want to search reddit" and it would show results from reddit

What about now? "whatever i want fediverse"? "whatever i want lemmy kbin mastodon"?

I don't mean to keep self promoting but: https://github.com/marsara9/lemmy-search

It's still a work in progress, but it's going to be a search engine specifically built for Lemmy, and maybe eventually the entire fediverse.

Idea is that you'll be able to search just like you normally would in Google but

the links it shows you would take you to your preferred instance
it will search as many lemmy instances as it can find, so it won't find anything outside of the fediverse.
