You know who's already indexing Mastodon posts?
Google.
You know who I wouldn't like to see gain a foothold into the Fediverse?
Google.
So how do we stop them doing that when I assume it would require all instances to do this. ?
@zleap Some people want to be indexed. So you can't exactly stop it from happening.
We might want to build better search services that are specifically opt-in and honours consent.

I can see how it would be useful though, and as more content is here, then people will find posts on here easier and may join as a result.
