If you've ever owned an older car, you know that this is the absolute best approach.
Good luck getting exceptionally niche advice for things like that on reddit. Forums get so much more specific, you get an entire forum dedicated to one car model that was only built for 5 years and a bunch of people there know literally everything about it, like the fact that you're better off getting an aftermarket PCV valve because those are built a bit better and don't fail early, or the fact that the shifter cable has the tendency to get water in it so you better be careful shifting out of park on a really cold morning, you might just snap the cable if it's old.

kinda think we need a search engine that can index fedirated sites . like lemmy /mastedon /pleroma .etc .etc
searching for help with technical /specific things has become a nightmare .as al the usefull subreddits have gone dark due to the ongoing protest . making google not so helpfull at all to use
Are lemmy instances indexed properly as well? Would it be enough to put "lemmy" into the search

I mean if you do hit this, like I have. You can just use google's webcached view. or sometimes the internet archive.
I found this covers most of my needs: https://cachedview.com/
You can prepend a link with "cache:" to view Google's cached version of the site. This works automatically with the url bar in at least Firefox and Chrome (likely other browsers as well). If your browser doesn't support that you can enter it in the google search bar and the result will be the cached version of the site (if available)
Didn't notice since I use Kagi...
I did notice that Kagi now informs us about how much tracking and shit the sites are using. It's a info badge for each url.

So... How is Lemmy set for SEO?
SEO as a concept needs to die. dont get me wrong i want Lemmy to show up in google results but doing that by spamming keywords and unrelated “related” posits is not the move
