#FediSearch, a Fediverse search engine, was just released!
Not only does it allow you to search the Fediverse, you can granularly search:
#Lemmy
#Kbin/Mbin
#Mastodon
#Peertube
Whenever a search engine for the #Fediverse is released, there’s controversy. And I fully expect this to happen once again. So I hope Benjamin Pryor, the developer, fully understands there’s bound to be blowback.
That said… Google and OpenAI are already indexing the Fediverse, have been doing so for awhile, and they don’t get half the vitriol as these small developers. So if you’re going to be outraged, maybe use some of that outrage against Big Tech who aren’t just indexing your posts but training their AI on it.
Personally, I plan on using FediSearch because it provides a valuable service not run by Google.
