I’m not totally sure if this is a Piefed issue or a Blahaj server issue, so sorry if it’s the wrong spot for this.
I’ve noticed that when I try to search for things, the results I get aren’t as expected. If I don’t select to search a community, post, or comment, I get nothing. Searching for posts or comments also pretty frequently gets me nothing.
Random example: just searching ‘signal’ gets me nothing on both posts and comments, along with nothing if I select nothing. But if I search under communities it gives me a community that is already federated and has threads and comments about Signal.
That’s good to know, I had assumed that was for search engines crawling the site and not the search within Piefed. Thanks for the update!
It’s both, which is a bit unfortunate. But what we’re seeing lately is bots hoovering up every post regardless of whether we want them to or not so…
Alas, also good to know!
