just go on any search engine and ask a specific question and put reddit after it. Chances are you will see at least 5-6 results. Now do the same and put lemmy next to it. Youll see practically nothing
They do indeed index, but the fediverse isn’t yet highly ranked against other results. The above will let you specifically search whatever site you choose, such as Lemmy.world
I can get this to work on Google and DDG. I haven’t bothered checking others. I usually search Lemmy via my app though.
the problem with specifically putting lemmy.world is you are blocking out all the other lemmy instances which could potentially contain the information you are looking for, i could be wrong but i believe this is how it will be when indexing
