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
Is there a website up to use this search yet? I'd love to add it to my MSEdgeRedirect project as a selectable search engine for the upcoming 0.8 version!
Sadly not yet. I'm in desperate need of a fronted dev, as the HTML/Javascript needs some serious work. But if I can't find someone soon I'll see what I can get put together and get it up and running soon enough.
