How to search Lemmy like Reddit? (lemmy.world)

One of the good things about Reddit is you often have a question and there’s a post about it with a bunch of users answering and validating the answers.

I’ve tried searching posts in Lemmy and either the search feature just doesn’t seem to work or maybe nobody has posted that question before (which I find unlikely).

What’s the best way to use Lemmy like a search engine for answers like Reddit?

You may be better off asking the question here yourself, as the redditor's of yore once did.

For sure but it’s slow. I’m thinking we should aggregate like the top 5000 searches on Google and have the users of Lemmy answer them.
