Kagi has an option to search the Fediverse. This makes it a lot easier than specifying a site in the search query, which would also limit the results to a specific instance.

Why YSK: This lets you easily replace searches like “some topic reddit” with Lemmy!

    Remote communities don’t federate until a user subscribed to them. There is this tool to automate it however.

    When you create a new community, it will only be available to your instance. To make it accessible to other instances, at least one user from each remote instance must follow it.

    This tool automates this process by following your community from all remote instances until it gains at least one real-user follower.
