https://lemmy.ml/robots.txt , https://lemmy.world/robots.txt , etc don't seem to disallow posts, so the text-based content should be easy to index, at least for these instances.
related news: Google is getting a lot worse because of the Reddit blackouts.
How long does it usually take for google to index websites? Because I tried the string
lemmy site:lemmy.ml after:2023-06-15and only one post turned up for me and it wasMemes... the current state of affairs does not seem promising ๐ And if I tried with another instance with the same keywordslemmy site:kbin.social after:2023-06-15nothing even turned up.I wonder though, will search engines adapt to Lemmy and its fediverse system?
