One of the good things about Reddit is you often have a question and there’s a post about it with a bunch of users answering and validating the answers.

I’ve tried searching posts in Lemmy and either the search feature just doesn’t seem to work or maybe nobody has posted that question before (which I find unlikely).

What’s the best way to use Lemmy like a search engine for answers like Reddit?

or maybe nobody has posted that question before (which I find unlikely).

It's very likely. You're comparing gargantuan and incredibly long-established site with a burgeoning, comparatively unknown niche network. I would assume it hasn't been asked yet on this platform rather than the opposite.
