I've been observing this for a while, where very basic queries about atproto stuff doesn't show up. But yesterday I found a query that makes it VERY obvious: "list of public atproto relays". Here's DuckDuckGo:1. https://firehose.directory2. https://atproto.at/relays3. https://atproto.wiki/en/wiki/reference/core-architecture/relay4. https://pulsar.feeds.blue5. https://leaflet.pub/12022731-ae4f-4a13-9f7a-5738b7a83c2eOf those results, Google only has 3, the only one on the list that... doesn't have a list of public atproto relays. None of the other sites are present anywhere. Trying not to assume malice instead of incompetence here, but it's really ironic that one of the ecosystems with the strongest ties to the open web, with users creating dozens of new websites every week, isn't getting indexed.
