When sharing lessons with each other about how to better search for information, especially in regards to searching on the internet, we use the hashtag #searchlores_💬.

search (v.):
1. to look into or over carefully or thoroughly in an effort to find or discover something.
2. to uncover, find, or come to know by inquiry or scrutiny.
from https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/search

lore (n.):
1. something that is taught.
2. something that is learned.
from https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/lore

This phrase is used in tribute to Fravia+ of ye olde website "searchlores" on which he explained in great detail how to get the most out of the internet and resist the tendency to be mislead or funneled into a certain worldview by search engines. Ah, the good old days... That was even before so-called "social media" started using artificial intelligence algorithms, unwittingly funneling us humans into filter bubbles, echo chambers, and other such psychological feedback loops.
