Interesting things about the new Mastodon #Search.
👎 It doesn't support searching for domains.
For example searching for "shkspr.mobi" doesn't find any posts. I use a search like that to see who is sharing my blog.
Even if I add the https:// - nothing.
In fact, I don't think it searching for URl at all. Searching for https://example.com/ brings up nothing.
What gives?
