Comment on Can Lemmy instances make content of their sub-Lemmys indexable by search engines?

Duplicate content shouldn’t be a problem as every post has a source URL. This is linked in the HTML head as the canonical URL. That way search engines know where something is from and that only that one is the true source.

Except lots of people post the exact same thing to every community with a related name across many instances.

I mean, do they? Do the search engines do that? I don’t know that they do. They could, but why spend the time making that?

  That’s standard HTML stuff available for decades.
