       @buherator ask your admin to afford a Pleroma.Search.Meilisearch/Pleroma.Search.Elasticsearch box then (spoilers it's not cheap)

       @i @buherator the new ParadeDB implementation gets you the same accuracy as Elastic (both BM25) and it stays in Postgres and is super fast and lightweight I'm running it on my 4GB ram 4 old cores server

       @buherator in other words you don't want a working search then, cause who wants a bunch of journos searching through old posts to try to harrass and cancel you

       @meowski Nobody forces anyone to post embarrassing things on the public Internet. On the other hand many ppl post their thoughts on the public Internet so others can discover and interact with them.

       @buherator journos specifically will find things that shouldn't be embarrassing, just genuine opinions and valid takes, and spend lots of time and effort doxing people, and generally complaining about people exercising free anonymous speech. i could live wihout journos. they would be happier over on bluecry or somewhere else

       @lain @i @feld @buherator Just lock the search bar behind a simple platformer level.

       @lain @i @feld It's not only about journalists, I personally spend significant resources to preserve/dig up stuff as needed, all of which should be trivial if scraping wasn't a (really stupid) taboo. This also hurts the discoverability of posts&accounts. I guess some would prefer hiding in their little bunkers with their chosen friends (and that's fine), but if we want to have an open social network it's probably the wrong strategy to design things around that concept.

       @meowski again, if that is concerning to you, you are free to limit your posts visibility and vet your followers. otherwise, limiting search will not protect you.

       @buherator oh nah i post publicly with zero f's given. really don't care if journos read it. i'm un-cancelable. my comment was just snark about the desire to have journos read anything. at any rate, the search on pleroma works pretty well. i can search anything in my db and it comes up.  it kind of depends how much you ingest from other instances and how well indexed it is in your db.  as the data grows indexing becomes more of a challenge. there isn't really one "fedi search" tool since it's pretty fragmented
