Hello all. Like many new users, I am a reddit refugee. Please forgive me if this isn’t the best community for my question; I am still learning my way around here.

I am used to google searching “[THING] site:reddit.com” when I want to see the opinions of real people on a topic rather than the flood of clickbait articles you get nowadays with Google.

What is the best way to execute this type of search within the Fediverse rather than Reddit?

    This sounds reasonable. Hopefully comments are indexed in a way that Google still works. I’ve never heard of setting up a search keyword like that; looks kind of like a Unix alias. How do you do that?

      Depends on the browser. In FF it’s part of a bookmark. In Chrom* it;s under search engines. more info
