The problem with that is, lemmy.world is only one of many different instances. Too bad there isn’t a way to add a modifier that searches the entire fediverse.
out of the top of my head, that won’t include lemm.ee, sopuli, beehaw, szmer.info, slrpnk.net, sh.itjust.works, or other threadiverse instances like kbin/mbin.
Appending (intext:“modlog” & “instances” & “docs” & “code” & “join lemmy”) to your search query will search most instances. Works with Google, Startpage, SearXNG afaik.
(Heh, when testing this sanitized URL from the thousand character monster it was before, Google asked me if I was a bot. I think parentheses and stuff make them suspicious.)
You could always add “site:lemmy.world” to your search (remove the quotes). I commonly do that, as well as the same for reddit or stack overflow.

yea i’ve been doing “inurl:lemmy” for that reason

You’d miss instances that don’t use “lemmy” in the URL, but it’s at least a better solution than specifying a single instance.
