I don’t want to ask duplicated so I want to know how to search before asking.
Your instance or app should have a search button somewhere.
Yes, it does, but how to search only in a specific community?
Depends on your app. But with the web interface you can filter by community and author.
Someone asked that already.
Kagi has a fediverse lens and you can sign up for a free trial with only an email (no payment info)
I searched ‘kagi fediverse lens’ and landed on a thread with people discussing Mastadon functionality. It isn’t clear to me what the lens is, but it sounds like it’s a search tool for specifically fediverse sites? What’s the functionality of it? I’m kinda curious about testing it out.
Kagi is a search engine and when you start a search you can enable different lenses, which are like filters that only show you results from that category. The fediverse lens shows you results from Lemmy and other fediverse instance, the forums lens shows results from a wider collections of forums only sites, etc
I discontinued my subscription because it’s stupidly expensive and they keep investing in dumb AI shit I don’t want rather than making search cheaper and/or better.
Gotta admit, I do miss it. It’s a neat service. But not for that price.
Unironicly asked something very similar like a week ago. “How do I search Lemmy?”
The answer I got: You can try searching from your instance to get some results, but in general, you don’t.
Lemmy.world is the biggest, so search that. But no this is the fediverse. This ain’t no re*****. (Reddit is also notoriously unsearchable)
A magical thing called google.
