That is... competely unintuitive ๐คจ... like why not just have a spyglass icon there, why the hamburger thing ๐คจ... maybe it's a bug ๐คท.
Yeah, it searches only by community name, not by topic, but hey, reddit works the same way (almost) and I didn't really mind that.
What bugs me is the URL handling, it keeps redirecting me to a browser, then I have to copy the instance-community link and copy it back here for the search ๐.
I find that I'm actually getting better search results using just the community have without the rest of the URL.
In Jerboa?
No, sorry, in the web browser.
