most people i know use google by searching whatever question they have and including the word “reddit” at the end to find reddit threads since it currently has the most useful information.

As Lemmy gets more and more filled with useful threads and reviews it would be great if we can collectively improve Lemmy’s SEO so just including the word lemmy in a search will show lemmy threads related to the search.

The obscure tlds used in lemmy servers don’t help and lemmy.com currently redirects to lemm.ee. Is there a way we can improve the SEO of all instances or have lemmy.com be a aggregator of threads from many Lemmy servers?

Why does it have to be just like your sister?

Because we will never reach a billion users and exist for 200 years like yo momma.

That's that og Reddit spirit I crave

No thanks. This adds absolutely no value to the conversation. I get the humor, but why would one want to turn Lemmy into reddit instead of going to reddit to sooth the "cravings" ?

Eh.. It has its place (especially if dude is going to set me up like that), and can be ignored if it's not your cup of tea.

Prurient banter has been a part of online forums since BBS message boards. It's how most people I know communicate IRL and online: Bullshit, bullshit, nugget of wisdom, picture of cat.

Not everything needs to be THUPER THERIAL, but it can be (and has frequently been) overdone because a lot of people don't realize that self-censorship is a hammer to be swung heavily.
