Ya I index both post titles and the post body. I also weigh the body content slightly higher as well. So posts that just link an article will usually show lower than posts that actually have content.
At some point though this will change. As eventually I'll start adding comment data to the index as well. But I'm waiting on a bug in Lemmy itself to be fixed before I begin working on that.
Sorry, I just deleted that part because I did some further testing and couldn't be sure if I was imagining it.
You've cleared it up. Looks like adding submission statements ranks it higher then. Typing in "biodiversity" ranks it higher than the literal community about "biodiversity" on Mander.
You've created an excellent tool, well done.
