In the past, when searching on a search engine, I would use "site:reddit.com" to narrow down my results. However, with Lemmy having different instances that may contain varying content, I found myself unsure of how to approach searching effectively. While the Lemmy search feature is useful at times, I sometimes miss the convenience of using a dedicated search engine. To address this, I developed a script that formats the most popular instances and allows me to search within them. Nevertheless, I wonder if there is a more convenient method for accomplishing this task. If anyone has any suggestions or tips, I would greatly appreciate it.

It's a well known bug, probably not your fault :)

Ahh good to know! Thought I was going crazy as I'm pretty sure I replied to the right post.
