Because you have been on Lemmy so they guess you like Lemmy

I too wish to replace Reddit with Subreddit.

That could just be Google’s algorithm predicting what you would most likely search for.

Yeah I tried in incognito mode and lemmy didn’t even show up on the list

I just tried it in incognito and got the same result as OP.

You can help keep it bumped up just by googling it yourself. While you’re there, if anyone feels like it, we could use a review on SourceForge.net which is currently missing some data on our service.

Honestly, can we get other content than Lemmy vs Apollo? I’m here for about 2 days and it’s mostly all just content shit talking about Reddit…

That should come in time. Reddit is the main reason many are coming to Lemmy in the first place so that’s what most of the discussions revolve around. As people start to settle in we should see some growth in communities.

FYI - the results you see are unique to you. Other people doing the exact same thing can see a different set of results.

Do you know what criteria Google uses for the results? For example, If I clear cookies in my browser and I’m not logged in, is it using my geographical area?

I have two ISPs, and my router balances between them. One is satellite, so the IP is in a different state. I have noticed a difference in YouTube suggestions based on which connection is being used, but I haven’t seen much difference on Google.

Nice. They really need to fix the Windows PC browsing experience though, the auto filling new posts that pop up and push shit down is gonna really grind any new people’s gears. It’s almost unusable on a browser right now.

Who even uses Quora? The interface is such garbage, I can’t even tell what’s sponsored content and what’s not. Sometimes you’ll start reading an answer and then realize it’s for a different question than the one the page is about.
