In addition to the bullets themselves, the primer that disperses in your face has lead too. There’s a nice graphic here: https://projects.seattletimes.com/2014/loaded-with-lead/1/

Ask on their github https://github.com/fmhy/FMHY/issues. I don’t see it listed anywhere, but it should be listed.

Ironic since you have to buy a Google phone to use that OS.

What does it default to? Google+bing+DDG?

I’m not seeing that option anywhere. Nor does it allow me to change the “weight”. I found a github discussion saying it should show up after you save the settings, but I tried that on two instances and didn’t get any unique URL.

Ah, I found it under the “cookies” tab. Needs to be more obvious IMO.

it’s as good or better than

It’s only as good as the search engines you select. Which ones have you selected?

Exactly.

I checked it out, but most of the public instances I looked at use google + bing. I think I only came across one that used Mojeek, but they deranked it so google results were still at the top.

Yeah you can customize them – if you never clear your cookies.

Pretty much need to self-host it to customize it.

we can get random experts chiming in about interesting topics in an organic way

1. In my experience, many of the people claiming to be experts on reddit are spreading misinformation. This goes for Twitter too, and probably most other large social media sites. People love to be seen as an authority on a topic.
2. Reddit is anything but organic, and is getting worse and worse in this regard.

There’s a github issue requesting this feature.

I haven’t observed that on Lemmy or Mastodon.

What do you use instead?

They’re not images, they’re articles. You have to click on the link to read the article. @[email protected]

The heavy metals in coal are the most concerning for me.

I think that has to do with your cookies. Your first one, I see wikipedia at #2, then jstor, then another site, then amazon again. There’s a lemmy.world post at #7.

You know a lot about the fediverse right? Do you know what the deal is with the crossposting feature? https://sh.itjust.works/post/26060607/14239219

SEO ranking is relative. IE: if reddit and lemmy have the same post title, the reddit one will show up higher since it has a higher domain authority.

I think this is also the main reason why youtube videos show up as top search results instead of the same video on youtube-alternative sites.

I think your previous question was clearer, so I’ll just link to it: https://sh.itjust.works/post/25867272/14197383

My response:

I’m no SEO expert, but search engines penalize websites for gaming the system. I’ve already read someone suggest that Google is not sure what to do with the fediverse because it already looks like spam, and that may be why it doesn’t show up often in search results. That’s beyond my knowledge though.

It reminds me of people who added Invidious links back in the day, but over time the individious instances would go down, preventing people from knowing which content was initially linked.

Yes, the archive.today links have that risk, but not the archive.org ones. Also, you can manually modify archive.today links to show the original link.

With the way this seems to works, can’t we just create thousands of links to let’s say Lemmy.world from all the other instances, to boost the LW domain authority? Shouldn’t all the crossposts links be taken into account in this calculation?

That might be one reason lemmy.world has a relatively high domain authority.

And if yes, then do 3 links here really make a difference?

Your 3 links won’t make a difference. Starting a trend and spreading the word will.
