Like Reddit is? e.g. for Google, or Bing (shudders), you know. Search engines. One of the ways many people around the world interacted with Reddit was looking up solutions, discussions, or similar from a search engine and NOT on Reddit itself. Is that possible in this thread of the fediverse?
It will probably treat the individual servers differently.
I’m of the opinion that Google should just federate with everything and index the fediverse so it can keep the original sources of everything.
