Like Reddit is? e.g. for Google, or Bing (shudders), you know. Search engines. One of the ways many people around the world interacted with Reddit was looking up solutions, discussions, or similar from a search engine and NOT on Reddit itself. Is that possible in this thread of the fediverse?

Yeah, this is actually a big worry to me, on Reddit especially because I think it would be easy (if not easier) to find out info about me by the subreddits I was active in

But it's also nice to have stuff indexed in Google when looking up product reviews and technical issues, etc. - it's a double-edged sword.

Ideally it'd be possible to make some comments pseudonymous at least (so only instance admins, or possibly community moderators could see the real author).

Yeah it's a hassle to have to create alt accounts.
