I'm curious as to why Lemmy rarely shows up in search results on the main internet even if there is a post related to the search input. I've only ever seen a Lemmy result if Lemmy is specified. Is this because we're still relatively small or some other reason?

Not much links to it. It's really rare that I see a blog, social media, or non-fediverse forum post link to a Lemmy post. That sort of thing still matters quite a bit to search engines.

    Be the change you want to see, I've been sending links like https://piefed.social/post/1062918 to friends and family when I see interesting things or funny memes
