After watching the 2nd episode of 11th season of Futurama, I googled "Futurama S11E02 discussion" (without quotes) and Lemmy.world was the 2nd result. We can do it, guys.

Keep in mind that your Google results are probably highly personalized. For instance, I tried googling that exact phrase (in a private window), and Lemmy doesnt appear for me at all.
This was the first thing that came to my mind. So I tried again, using a VPN (exit server in the USA) and an incognito window. That screenshot came from that result.
You love to see it!
While probably a valid enough test, keep in mind Google's fingerprinting goes well beyond IP and what incognito applies. There's a reason Tor Browser changes things like browser window dimensions every time you open it.
Can confirm, I got it as the third result on mobile if in incognito. Don’t actually get the result without being in incognito which is odd, but it’s mobile too so results are always a bit different.
Regardless, awesome to see that it’s up there at all!!
your browser fingerprint can also tell them who you are.
Lemmy was the 5th result for me in private mode, just after youtube
5th and 6th (different lemmy instance) results for me on Kagi

At the very least, I'm sure they track the usual fingerprinting - geolocation etc.
If Reddit goes through with their threat of removing their links from Google, then Lemmy will definitely win.
Please, for the love of the internet, never feel like you can't contribute and keep things fun, interesting, and completely weird. That's how we take back what we all love.
... and while there's no reason to state the obvious I'll say it anyway. Fuck spez
If Reddit goes through with their threat of removing their links from Google
Why the hell would they do that?
These tech freaks have a mercantilist, zero-sum view of how the web works: any link elsewhere is bad and anyone else profiting is your loss. They didn't use to think this way but have gradually built a bubble around themselves over time, losing all perspective of their own users in the process. This also explains the move of this tech cohort to the regressive right wing.
Something to do with Reddit asking big tech companies to pay for AI training on its contents.
Only Elon Musk is that stupid. Empty threats.
This is amazing. If we can overtake Reddit in search indexing—or even just show up alongside it like this we’re completely set.
Made the full switch a couple days ago and already don't miss reddit at all. The community is smaller, yes, but that lends itself to better, more engaged discussion. People are here because they want to be not because its the only place offered.
I think you misspelled enraged.
There's no engaged discussion on here. If you have any opinion about paying for services, using Windows, or driving a car, you'll be downvoted and attacked lmao.
I can't say I've experienced any of those things. Not saying they don't happen though, just saying I've had some good interactions about a variety of topics.
Or evidence that disproves a claim made about why any of these are bad.
Futurama has one of the bigger communities on here. Lemmy needs more dedicated communities centered around a certain franchises, like Baldurs Gate or Futurama or live-action One Piece.
Definitely. Any subjects where people search for interests or for answers to questions. Google sucks so much ass now that I got into the habit of just using it to search Reddit for answers. Showing people it's worth doing the same with Lemmy will be huge.
Man, i joined lemmy about 2 months ago and because there are no free apps for reddit i haven't logged on there since then. Once people understand the instances they will feel at home.
There are some amazing apps and even web apps now
the era of the big corpo monosite has made people forget what it's like to have more than one website, and even before that era websites didn't really talk to one another all that much. with time people will learn, and the ones who can't will drown in botspam on the decaying husks of corposites

Fingers crossed that version 0.19 will bring more users on board 🥺
I doubt anyone is hanging on for mostly technical / security changes in 0.19. The best way to improve uptake is to remove all the sand from the signup process which as it stands would scare away many people.
First on my SearXNG instance
Since no one asked, here's Yahoo
Long, long screenshot
I believe in us
Wooooooooooooo
Keep being good to each other, one another, everyone staying alive and doing as little harm as possible.
Man this wound me up. It's not season 11, it's season 8.
That didn't stop me downloading the wrong episode, time and time again. Same file, but it had completely the wrong name, and I need them all to say ELiTE or ETHEL consistently, otherwise it's all just wrong.
4 original seasons, plus movies, plus 3 more seasons. Not sure how it ended up as 11, seems the 6th and 7th seasons are divided up into 2 parts each, maybe the movies are counted as 2 as well?
Each movie is the length of about 4 episodes.
11 seasons I think refers to the original airings. IMDB has the 11 season episode list: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0149460/episodes/, meanwhile Wikipedia shows it as 8, but splits the seasons down a bit, however for some reason there's only 10 there: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Futurama_episodes#Series_overview
Did the same thing, now this thread is shown and not the discution
What if we create a thread about this thread about that discussion?
Unfortunately the later episodes kinda suck.
Like. So much I can't remember the plot of the last 2 despite having watched them yesterday.
Something about duck wars... It was an episode of B sides. Plural.
Preem! But I also wish these new Futurama episodes were better. They suck worse than the comedy central ones
I like the new ones
Except for the king of space one, I know it was immediately retconned but still, It made me angry they'd bring back Futurama and shovel that at us.
Haven't even bothered watching them. The original run is old af now and Futurama has become a meme to most people. Just let it die and make a new show.
Using DuckDuckGo and all regions (and I suppose a Scandinavian VPN) lemmy.world was 4th. Still not bad! 🙂
Cheers to the community and plethora of apps available.
We should also thank Lemmy creator and contributors making it search engine friendly and instance admins to make the result appear higher (faster response, https, crawlability, etc.)
Awesome!!!
There you go! We can do this guys!
Now this thread is the second result when I search that lol.
6 months later, Lemmy is still the second result for me.
What do you bet, every comment on Lemmy is just a fucking bot which has cloned the comment section from Reddit?
nice try, spez
