CNBC shared this from a Google all-hands this month: One tool to try and help with that is Google’s new Perspectives feed that’s designed to show results from humans. But now that many of the protesting subreddits have opened up, the Reddit trick isn’t as nerfed as it used to be.
If that was mandatory you’d kill of smaller/personal servers, which is bad.
Should be a host option to decide what to sync.
Oh and you’d also need to solve an issue with a new instance joining and completely flooding everyone else with requests for past content.
It’s all solvable but the reasons to do it this way aren’t just random.
Oh and you also face issue with duplicate content (between instances) which search engines generally don’t like.
Ideally there would be native integration for search engines where they’d just connect with the fediverse like another instance and have special handling for the content. They could either display the content in their own UI or allow the user to pick their default instance that’d open the given content
I suspect that’d be the best way but we won’t see it unless federated apps become mainstream.
