Wait… so search is only available for some instances? I did not know that… 🤔

@ReneeWestberry Yeah, or so I’ve heard. I’m not on any myself, and wasn’t too impressed when I found out, as I’d liked the idea of not being searchable, but at the end of the day all of Masto is generally exposed to the internets anyway, so probably searchable in one way or another. Google would be hovering everything up already I’m sure?

Some instances are full-text searchable by default. I think some instances, you can opt in to full-text searchable for your posts. And I seem to remember that there's a link where, regardless of the policy at your instance, you can register and request that your posts be indexed for searchability? (Somewhere in my bookmarks; if that interests you, I'll go to a real computer and look for it.)

Regardless, #hashtags are searchable (I think).

@mmlvx @ReneeWestberry Yeah, I was pretty cool with the idea that hashtags are searchable and text generally is not. Never expected it to last all that long.
