#mastodonsearch — Public Fediverse posts

Aight #MastodonHelp

searching "from:me" brings up my posts, she searching " ⁨# WritersCoffeeClub⁩" (without the space cause i don't wanna clog up the actual tag with this post) brings up other people's posts to the hashtag

But when i combine both queries i get no results even though i KNOW ive posted to this hashtag before.

EDIT: searching from:me works with # anime and # writing, but not the hashtag above

What gives? What can i do about it? Why can't i find my old posts?

I have a question regarding #MastodonSearch

@MastodonEngineering

Why can't I find posts from my own timeline? Example: I saw a post about a music video on youtube. I've opened it in another tab for later. Some hours later, I wanted to boost the original post but I couldn't find it anymore by entering the band's name into the search field. My server only came up with much older posts.
I had to scroll down my timeline a bit and used my browser's ctrl-F to find the post. That's... bad. 😡

In Mastodon, is it possible to search for posts that do *not* contain a specific hashtag? I don't mean full-text search, but plain old hashtag search only for absence of hashtag instead of presence. 🤔

If you want to search for a reply you made to somebody you can't just search for part of their name/handle. You need to include the @ and the full handle (but you don't need the server part). The handle in the following example is weird by design to make sure I'm not tagging an account that actually exists:

@someHandle123 from:me is:reply

Wow. #mastodon search really isn't working for me. 🙁

I know there are toots for these, because I tooted them:

And just today there are a number of toots with this name, but mastodon search finds … none:

@OlivierGuinart Update: I forgot that there is a search function now that actually works pretty decently.

In the search box, type:
from:<your username> keywords

I was able to find my post from June 2024 that way. Yippee.

The lack of a real search function on Mastodon strikes again. I'd like to post an update today on a Toot I made 6+ months ago, but of course I can't find it. I'll probably have to download my Mastodon archive and dig through it if I really want to find it.

As a creative solution, I have been "indexing" my posts with hashtags that start with Scott, which my pal @OlivierGuinart noticed and playfully poked fun at one day. It's a good but imperfect solution.

It's been 0 Days since the Mastodon search capability has disappointed me.

I've had "Include public posts in search results" turned on for months now, but at least on my instance, it doesn't seem to find anything more than two days old. To verify, I've tried several words that are in toots from 3 to 14 days old, and none of them hit.

#Tootfinder appears to be down at the moment, but only covers ~3 months IIRC.
