Oh my god, yes. Spotlight on Tahoe is a joke. Why will it so often not display any results at all, even for system apps like Safari or Terminal? You’d think those would be in an always available cache guaranteed to always show up instantly? So many questions.

For your sanity, I say just stop using spotlight. Don't let Apple steal your valuable waking hours with their crap QA.

- elxr 8mo agoTuna (https://tunaformac.com https://tunaformac.com), like I mentioned earlier. Made by a really creative solo dev, minimal, and not as complex as raycast. It's a night and day difference compared to the pile of garbage Spotlight.
- throwaway290 7mo agoTuna looks super cool But I'm sure there is some explanation but when I launched an app using tuna I got a standard macOS security notification "Tuna.app was prevented from modifying apps on your Mac" Why a simple launcher needs "App Management" permission ?
- dntrkv 8mo agoI’ve had issues like that in the past, had to clear the cache for the spotlight index or something like that. Fixed it right away. Not sure if you’re facing the same issue.
