But what search?
Search of their own posts, for "oh, I'm sure I posted this!" purposes? Probably uncontroversial.
Search of posts which have already been on their timeline? Again, probably uncontroversial, as long as deleted posts are not searchable.
Search *across the fediverse*, including posts of people you don't follow? More controversial (and tricky, technically), and I'd err on opt-in again.
