Hopefully this kind of content is ok here. Up until recently, when I would be searching for some kind of technical info, the top (and best) results would usually all be Reddit posts. I was very pleasantly surprised to do that this time and find a Lemmy post instead!
…It did happen to be a post from me, so unfortunately didn’t answer my question at all, but I still thought it was really neat and wanted to share. Has anyone else seen Lemmy stuff getting indexed and turning up in their search results?

While true, I just tried in an incognito window and the post was #5
Oh, my sweet summer child.
I know, I know. I nearly added a disclaimer. Point is I’m not OP and I’ve never searched for that kind of thing. At most they know I like lemmy.
