Discord search is horrendous. The chat and threads are nice, but finding previous messages can be difficult. I feel like there's a opportunity here for someone to make a similar platform with far better search.
- charcircuit 3y agoI rather like Discord search and found it to be fast and reliable to use.
- pratnala 3y agoIt is called Discourse and it is far better.
- iknowstuff 3y agoWhat do you mean? Its search is zippy af and the filters you can apply help narrow messages down very well
- Kye 3y agoIt's the lack of verbatim search. I can't plonk an error message in quotes and have Discord return only comments with that. Instead I'm inundated with irrelevant comments. This wouldn't be a problem if so many things didn't use Discord for support. It's being overloaded as a knowledge base, support forum, and community when it doesn't handle any of these functions well.
- PUSH_AX 3y agoDiscord search is pretty standard, you can do much worse. Especially at their scale.
- makeitshine 3y agoStandard in what way? It can't even do partial matches or words with close spelling. It's pretty much exact whole words only or nothing.
- PUSH_AX 3y agoWhich, is pretty standard..
- makeitshine 3y agoOn what platform? Every single social media app I use has some form of partial matching in the search boxes.
- nottorp 3y agoBut there already is one. It's called a forum :)
