Google should be finding searches with "lemmy" keyword, but it isn't at the moment.
Lemmy needs some SEO people.
I don't think lack of SEO is the issue. There's just not enough content and brand/domain authority to get results from here high in SERPS.
There might be something fediverse related that would affect performance in search, but I'm not knowledgeable enough about this setup to speak to it.
I think it's just lack of content, general awareness/interest, and longevity that's keeping Lemmy low in search
