I was looking for a specific post I'd seen before on golfing tips: Tips for golfing in Perl?

I eventually found it on codegolf, not meta.codegolf where it obviously belongs. Yet, apparently it is too old to migrate to meta.codegolf. I have read the reason for this on meta but I disagree that it's applicable here.

What are the options to be able to find such content solely by searching on meta.codegolf?

    \$\begingroup\$ tips questions do belong on main if that's what you mean. Meta is solely for discussing the site an it's contents. [tips] is not about the site itself \$\endgroup\$

Tips for golfing in Perl? does not belong on Meta.

This is because Meta is for questions about the site Programming Puzzles & Code Golf, not for questions about Perl.

Furthermore, our help center says that

Non-challenge questions that are are related to solving programming puzzles or a particular type of challenge are also on topic.

which means that they are, in fact, on topic on the main site.
