@zkat@toot.cat @aRubes@tooot.im Yeah, it’s just toots the instance you’re on knows about. So you’re effectively searching the federated timeline.

@zkat@toot.cat @aRubes@tooot.im I stand corrected on what it searches. I just installed Elasticsearch on my server and discovered it doesn't search the federated timeline, it's scoped to the person searching and only shows posts they created or are somehow connected to (mentioned, liked/faved, boosted, bookmarked, or voted in a poll on). I kept thinking search was broken, but it's working exactly as intended. https://docs.joinmastodon.org/admin/optional/elasticsearch/ https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/blob/58fc889c6fe697da4f880cb43e75d97d3a604d79/app/models/status.rb#L138-L158
