Not sure if I should just make a post for this, but I will ask here.
Is lemmy searchable? The main appeal of reddit for me was searchability. I see a lot of different instances with different domains names.Maybe there is a meta search or something? Adding reddit to the end of a search was very convenient.
You can use this page, to search for communities (subreddits): https://browse.feddit.de/. You can also use https://sub.rehab/.
You can also just use the search function on your Lemmy instance (sh.itjust.works). It will also show content from other Lemmy instances.

Interesting question!
Lemmy has a search facility (a magnifying glass icon, generally in the top right, or perhaps behind a menu).
And it's not bad, though rough around the edges I'd say.
It will only be specific to what your instance "can see", which is all the activity in all the communities that all its users subscribe to.
So, no "meta search". But it's an interesting idea given how it was part of Reddit's value.
No reason why one couldn't be made on top of the network though
