My gut feelings so far range to "it's worth a try!' and 'better than nothing' on this but read @anildash proposal for a #Fediverse search (with a focus on "consent") yourself as I think it's worth a read:

TIL about #Searchtodon experiment & (with it's closing) @janl excellent retrospective on it:

I wouldn't mind (1) ability to privately search my timeline for public things I missed (I already save/sync my personal #Mastodon posts on my own blog) and (2) Jan's last points - #Fediverse will only get bigger and for it's protection and of it's users a system where we can experiment safely. Just like Twitter's early days folks will build tools and play. #mastosearch

People on Mastodon who whine about indexing of their public posts are like Chris-Chan...
They want to be public figures with an audience and a global platform, with all the benefits and trappings thereof... But they also want to be 100% invisible to anybody they deem a troll. #searchtodon #mastosearch
