I don't miss Reddit at all.
(beehaw.org)
Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

I don't know, it's been difficult to access a lot of information without reddit, especially when reddit makes up half my google results. I hope people start using the fediverse to share information, but we'll have to see if it catches on.
While that is true don't be afraid to ask questions! !technology@beehaw.org would be glad to answer all your tech related questions
This is true. But you can use Reddit just as a source of information. You can always bring that back here and share/contribute that info with others.
Reddit has had a good decade of a head start over Lemmy instances. It's no surprise there's so much more information indexed.
I also read somewhere that kbin/lemmy etc are not indexed in search engines.
They are. For example. https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Akbin.social+news
That's true for some Fediverse platforms (Mastodon for instance opts users out of search engine indexing by default, though they can opt in if they wish), but doesn't seem to be the case with Lemmy.
-reddit... minus Reddit on all Google search
So true. I add reedit at the end of my query to get solutions for very specific problems. Now after that whole fiasco, it feels wrong to do that anymore. I hope this gets good traffic in the future.
You can try "forum" or "forums" instead and it'll pull from Reddit, official MS boards, and sites like Tomshardware. Since all those things come up in the search engine as forums.
Thank you for the suggestion. Will check it out.
We just need to post tons about our niche interests until fediverse sites start ranking higher due to having fresher more up to date information, bringing us back to the time where search results yielded hits from a range of specialized forums, except this time they're all connected.
