Maybe if we post news about Lemmy on Lemmy, it will turn more Lemmy fans into Lemmy fans?
Yo dawg, I heard you liked Lemmy in your Lemmy…
I don’t know if you mean turn Lemmy fans into lemmy fans, or lemmy fans into Lemmy fans. But either way, I’m for it.
I’m a Lemmy fan and I’m posting on lemmy, so I’m all for posting more about Lemmy on lemmy.
Lemmy gold for you.
The King in Yellow himself. He isn’t dead, he just went home.
To be fair, he’s dead, so there’s not that much current news.
He’s still the top Google result tho.

Now I want to see Motorhead cover Thriller.
One of the only thing I miss about Reddit was their very active Guitar subs. So I Googled Lemmy Guitar to search for some active forums, and was disappointed that all I got were Lemmy Motorhead links.
If anybody knows any active guitar forums on Lemmy, please let me know. The only ones I found are extremely quiet, with days, weeks, or even months between posts. I can’t be the only guitarist on Lemmy, so where are they all hanging out?
That’s my experience trying to find any specific subject matter on lemmy, google tries to relate it to Motorhead.
are you guys just not aware you can filter by site?
guitar site:lemmy.worldI was actually completely unaware of that. Thanks!
I’ve had middling results using “Lemmy Fediverse” in search strings instead of just “Lemmy”. You still get a lot of Motorhead though.
just filter by your instance, e.g google
thing_youre_interested_in site:sh.itjust.works
That lemmy was a awesome guy though.
Here is the documentary from 2010
That “Motorhead guy” was Lemmy Kilmister and he played rock and roll.

Lemmy was born Ian Fraser Kilmister […]
Sometimes, I think about the fact that if I post something really useful here, our traffic’s still so comparatively small that it probably won’t come up in a search engine query.
But that’s the way I like it, baby - I don’t want to live forever.
Before the whole reddit fiasco, many of my search results were directed to include reddit. I wish I could do the same with Lemmy but no one comments so it’s not worth it.
I’m so conflicted right now.
Plenty of people comment on Lemmy, but I think the main issue is that everything is split over multiple domains which seems to be ranked lower by search engines. I’ve recently been seeing Lemmy.world in Google search results, and even some from the “smaller” instances such as sh.itjust.works and db0.
Searxng has a way to query threadiverse posts, perhaps that works better.
I wish Duckduckgo would add a band that would search all of Lemmy via Activitypub
Show some respect to our God and saviour Lemmy Kilmister!
(Yeah I had to Google his last name)
What’s this Motorhead person?
Also as soon as the search engines start picking it up Lemmy is going to start growing like crazy again
It is already my top result
They’re not though. If I type Lemmy in Google, about 90% of page 1 is Lemmy from Motorhead .
