How to search the Fediverse? (kbin.social)

A week ago I could just use google to search for something specific and just append 'site:reddit.com' in the query and found the answer.
Multiple subreddits went from private to restricted recently so new posts are pretty close to zero and no new content is added.
If I assume people migrated to kbin/lemmy, how can I find an answer to my question/problem/wHaTeVeReLsE? I'm not speaking about searching for a Magazine/Community, or title of article, but users' answers.

Oh, this is interesting. If a fediverse compatible software gets search right, it's gonna get a lot of users. Otherwise, we either have to change the way we search things or search engines might have to change the way they show results.

I don't think it would be too hard to change the query though. Instead of adding "Reddit" at the end of your search query, you can add "kbin", "Lemmy", or whatever instance you want to see search results from.
