It’s hard not to overstate how much of a big deal it is that Mastodon is adopting this kind of search functionality. Mastodon still makes up a vast portion of the Fediverse.
While other platforms have supported this for way longer, having buy-in by the biggest player in the space will probably have a huge effect on standard expectations moving forward.
Boo!
I liked when people had to put effort in and you could discuss things without coming up in searches.
If you don’t want to come up in searches don’t check the box in your profile that says “I want to come up in searches”.
That was never a thing on the fediverse… Search has been part of it since the beginning, just not on Mastodon
It’s opt-in (as in by default you are not going to show up on any search)
Is that on new accounts too?
