I’ve mentioned this before, but SEO for Lemmy and Mastodon is particularly poor due to repeat content (since the content is continuously mirrored): https://moz.com/learn/seo/duplicate-content
Tldr- it’s not you, search engines don’t work well with Lemmy

It does set the canonical URL tags however which should help Google know those are equivalent URLs and to not flag it as duplicate.
But that also means instances have to rank on their own content, none of the fediverse mirrored ones so it’ll seriously limit how much the fediverse as a whole can compete with Reddit which have all the content at the same place.
