if let url = URL(string: "https://eventfrontier.com/api/v3") {
	// Create an instance of the Lemmy API with the base URL of your Lemmy instance
	let api = LemmyAPI(baseUrl: url)

	// Create a SearchRequest object with the `q` parameter
	let request = SearchRequest(q: "Lemmy-Swift-Client")
	// Send the request to the Lemmy API
	if let response = try? await api.request(request) {
		print(response)
