Ok, you piqued me: Got a link to a guide on using Kagi for the fediverse?

I started using Kagi a few months before $10 became unlimited queries.
When I first switched I’d still, occasionally, swap back to google using bangs because I had to unlearn all the hacks I had to make Google turn up useful things. Now I can’t go back, Google is unsable without those hacks. Its barely usable with them.
Plus Kagi has a “fediverse forum” lens that lets me search Lemmy much more effectively than Lemmy’s search.

There’s not much to it. Under settings in Kagi there’s a tab for “Lenses.” Make sure “Fediverse Forums” is turned on.
Then, after you search, you can filter from a broad web search to any of your enabled lenses. Lens toggle

Oh that’s awesome. The drop-down arrow “disapeared” with my mental blinders-- I was thinking it was only a toggle for PDFs.

SearXNG has fediverse search functionality too.
