minus-squarecraig9@lemm.eetoAsk Lemmy@lemmy.world•*HOW* can we coax search-engines in to being able to do the simple "lemmy" + "search word" thing..?linkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·edit-25 days agoI just did some experimenting, and in duckduckgo.com at least, searches like this work quite well: “Best CPU (site:lemm.ee OR site:lemmy.world OR site:lemmy.ca)” Not exactly user friendly, but it’s a starting point. At least two ways forward: A browser plugin with a config page allowing you to select/deselect your favourite instances, and make a bang operator to suit: e.g. “!lemmy” Petition search engines to do this themselves. linkfedilink
