Since reddits search function is a hot pile of garbage, I mostly used google to find threads when I needed community based information.
Video card acting up? No problem.

Problem is I don’t know how to look tings up here via google
Should I give up the convenience of searching things from my address bar and use the built in search,or is there some secret sauce for googling stuff?
I have submitted “!lemmy” to DDG as one of their Bang indicators. See if it gets approved. Saw this topic over on Lemmy.world where someone mentioned this, but it seems like i cant login into lemmy.world or crosspost, or even see all teh comments on this page. Still learning!
As others have said, add site:lemmy.world (in your case - others should use their own server name) to whatever you’re googling for. For example: https://ddg.gg/rx 6700 xt known driver issues site:lemmy.world
Wish there were a way to search across all Lemmy instances, even ones without the word Lemmy in their name. Maybe that’s something Google themselves will implement eventually?
I’d imagine DDG in particular will add !lemmy at some point to make it easier to google stuff there 🤷
