Ask HN: Search engine for discussions about a URL?
Are there any search engines that allow you to find forum and blog discussions about a given URL? For example, I wanted to find discussions about this list of RISC-V criticisms, so I searched Google, Bing, and DuckDuckGo for the following URL:
https://gist.github.com/erincandescent/8a10eeeea1918ee4f9d9982f7618ef68
None of those search engines found any of the following relevant discussions:
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20541144
https://lobste.rs/s/eextl1/former_arm_engineer_s_opinions_on_risc_v
https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/cixatj/an_exarm_engineer_critiques_riscv/
https://www.reddit.com/r/RISCV/comments/ciyigm/an_exarm_engineer_critiques_riscv/
https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/duplicates/cixatj/an_exarm_engineer_critiques_riscv/
https://www.reddit.com/r/cpudesign/comments/cjesux/an_exarm_engineer_critiques_riscv/
Is there some other search engine that would have found those for me?
- sigmaprimus 6y agoIn Google, Try putting "related:" infront of your domain. Eg. "Related:https://gist.github.com/erincandescent/8a10eeeea1918ee4f9d9982f7618ef68 https://gist.github.com/erincandescent/8a10eeeea1918ee4f9d99..." Here is a link to a decent list of functional google operands. https://ahrefs.com/blog/google-advanced-search-operators/ https://ahrefs.com/blog/google-advanced-search-operators/
- bshanks 6y agoThanks, but that still doesn't find any of those links.
- sigmaprimus 6y agoAh my bad. Maybe try "in text : "your url" that one should work better. Maybe there is a problem with robots.txt preventing Google from indexing? You might be on to something though, should be fairly easy to produce a page that does what you are asking on the visitors end. Possibly even allow users to add specific forums to crawl.
