No one really talks about it and it's in its infancy, but I've really been enjoying Stract.com
I was cheeky and put Lemmy into the "find a website" menu and it listed off a bunch of instances.
If you've used Kagi, it has a feature much like "lens" to raise the weight of fediverse results too
I really want to like stract but I can't get it to give me good results. I typically search for programming related things and it has difficulty pulling up relevant information regarding things like documentation and posts regarding the issue.
That's fair, I can't say I've daily-driven it yet since I've still got my Kagi sub, but I'm thinking of defaulting it on my work computer to put it through its paces. It's done fairly well with some of my tests, but definitely seems to still be getting refined, I've noticed recent information can be difficult to find on it
