Neither DuckDuckGo nor Google are particularly good at it, since you can’t do something like site:reddit.com. How do you guye search or is this just an unsolved problem?

I’m being dim. This type of query can’t cover instances that lemmee, in this case, isn’t subscribed to, can it?
That’s true, it will only show content which has been federated to lemm.ee, so indeed if you want to search for more content than is available on your instance, you would need some additional tools for that.
That’s what I thought, phew!
Global searches for things is how I discovered subreddits that are my topic of interest but are called - for me anyway - unusual names! I can’t expect any one instance to carry all of Lemmy so I was asking about a search engine.
That said, your search method is probably much better than what I’m doing now! Thank-you.
