I actually don’t mind projects that use discord as their primary online community, but goddamn, discord’s text search is NOT amazing. Yes, it searches text and is likely fine for gaming / casual online communities. But man, it provides none of the utility I would expect a modern chat app’s search feature to have. Boolean operators, date ranges, wildcard matches, fuzzy matching, scoped searches (beyond just being able to specify a channel, like searching for a string in a user’s posts in a specific channel), etc. The subpar search functionally is a huge weakness, especially for communities like OSS where being able to meaningfully surface past comments / threads / solutions provides enormous value.
