In a recent discussion it was mentioned that the search function in Lemmy is awkward to use and could be improved. As a result I already made two small changes:

  • Change community selector to use !community@example.com format (#3218)
  • Search field in community sidebar (#3217)

Are there any other UI or UX changes you can think of to improve searching in Lemmy? Im mainly looking for frontend changes, such as reorganizing the input positions, changing default values etc.

    For post searches, could there be a [] Search Title Only? I have been reading a post and had my client crash and was unable to find the post again, despite recalling some or all of the title.

    I also do a foreign word of the day and when I want to check if I am duplicating a post I have to skim through all of the posts that include that word.
