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.

You're kinda right? It'll be harder for links to be considered authoritative by google since they'll be across a bunch of smaller websites with fewer references to them (unlike reddit, which is 1 website with billions of links to it).
But maybe it'll work somewhat anyway since every page has "Join Lemmy" text in the bottom & google might be able to link them together.
On the other hand I have no idea and I'm just going off my vague understanding of how the google algorith m works.
I suspect that Google could do it, but won't. When they ditched "Don't be evil" as their corporate motto, they went all the way. Alphabet is as evil as they come. The Fediverse isn't a giant corporation, and Reddit is. So Google won't be doing us any favors. It's that simple.
