since stackoverflow is dead and reddit is also on the way to its grave, I was wondering if we can have enough knowledge base here so that Lemmy comes on the first page of a search query. I know it's very hard to archive and I haven't even seen a single result from lemmy unless I specifically add 'lemmy' keyword to it.

side tangent: Reddit results are also not shown unless we add 'reddit' keyword but sometimes even if you don't add 'reddit' you can see it on the first result.

I've never seen it.

I also think it would kill Lemmy--getting to be the first results on Google is too valuable a prize. We'd be overrun by bots and astroturfed to hell.
