I've used the site:gitlab.haskell.org trick on Google for some time. Recently 
(last month or so?) I've found that it's much less useful. I can't quantify 
this, other than the fact that I find myself frequently displeased with the 
result. It does seem that Google indexes our site less frequently than it used 
to, but again, I can't provide data.

So I'm also unhappy with the current ability to search.

There's not a way to request that Google index our site more often, is there?
