I've heard you can do a google search and append say kbin.social to get results just from kbin, but if I wanted to treat the fediverse's content like reddit's, is there a way to do the google search on just everything that's on the fediverse?

edit:
I've been hearing people will want to make search tools to help us search the fediverse, and in the future even give us options on our servers to opt out of being indexed if we want.

Also this is a search site someone else recommended where you can choose which search engine to search the fediverse: https://fedi-search.com

I’d like to know this too. I do a lot of XYZ review reddit into google when making purchasing decisions. The black out left me without a solid resource of user opinion!

You can look at the cached version of pages, i think you have to click the options button next to the search result.
