Neither DuckDuckGo nor Google are particularly good at it, since you can't do something like site:reddit.com. How do you guye search or is this just an unsolved problem?

To search for fish on lemmy, input
fish (intext:"modlog" & "instances" & "docs" & "code" & "join lemmy")
into google

This is really nice.

No equivalent way to do it on Duckduckgo, that you know of, right?

Try it on duckduckgo, I have never tested it. They try to replicate a lot of google’s functionality.
