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.

I block politics subs and have never had an issue with lemmy.ml. All the issues I see are related to politics.

What do you use instead?

They’re not images, they’re articles. You have to click on the link to read the article. @Blaze@feddit.org

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

The links just need to have a “no follow” attribute (which is something that Lemmy could add, if they haven’t already).

Sounds like a good suggestion to make on github. I don’t know how easy it would be to do that for only reddit links, and I’m not sure how the devs would feel about that.

Also, from your link:

The correlation for the number of “dofollow” backlinks is a little bit weaker than that of the total number of backlinks.

Here’s what Tim said about this:

This could be an indication that Google values some nofollowed links from strong pages more than followed links from weak pages. #whoknows Tim Soulo Tim Soulo, CMO Ahrefs

Take this finding with a large pinch of salt. The primary aim of this study was not to analyze the impact of nofollowed vs. followed links and as such, we didn’t make any effort to isolate this factor.

But even if we assume that nofollowed links have no direct impact on SEO, they can still have an indirect impact because: They help diversify your link profile

Natural backlink profiles are diverse.

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.
