Gotta be honest, watching the titles of the posts getting deleted made me a bit nostalgic, because it was an almost 5yo account.
However, now that's old news, and my account is totally gone.
I won't miss it really, I like Lemmy a lot more.

Depends on the search engine I think? I was getting lots of nice results on "Lemmy neovim" on Kagi.
But yeah, fully aware that almost all people use Google and that the current results may not be as good as reddit.
In my experience with google at least, you have to specifically add "lemmy" to get any results to show up (and a lot of them aren't related to the search term, just general lemmy pages), which doesn't solve the problem until enough people know to add it.
I'm all for lemmy overtaking reddit but let's not waste people's time by deleting useful information ๐. Deleting comments with solutions to problems will just come off as obnoxious and make people want to avoid lemmy.
