The search features on default lemmy web and app clients are utter dogshit. I sometimes want to see if my question has already been answered elsewhere on lemmy, and I can't find it (even when i remember seeing multiple versions of the same post before), so I often have to add yet another duplicate post about a common question (this post is likely an example of this too).

I am aware of people saying they see great results with the paid search engine "kagi". Do you use any other better ways to query the fediverse?
