whole reason we hate discord is it cant be search indexed, why make lemmy just as useless
Your problem with Discord is, that you cannot search it from Google or Microsofts Bing?
As for searching in Lemmy, there is a powerful search option right next to your notifications. I strongly doubt that google could provide you such a good search when it had all the content crawled.
I think learning about the UI is a better solution, than giving everything to Google or Microsoft.
Even with reddit, google searching is superior to reddit search? Why would lemmys search somehow be superior to reddits or googles?
Because i can search by author, type of content, communities, timeframe and keywords.
But also i dont get your argument from the logical basis of it. Reddit did not write the Lemmy code. There is no relation as to why the reddit search function should be an indicator of how the lemmy search function works.
You are asking why George shouldnt also be better in math than Lisa, because Jon is better in math than Robert. Just that Lisa and Robert are in completely different schools in different countries.
