It's easy to get stuck "below the sprint" and not have a higher level view. Make sure to always take time to look ahead and see what's coming and make suggestions on ordering. If your team has a backlog meeting then take

All of your points are valid and a bit depressing. Google will always be ahead of the game in search. This will always be a problem for FOSS decentralized projects. How to overcome this will be a problem that is perhaps handed down to the n

The search is really frustrating. Everything I type is not there and then it shows me things that are very far away from what I typed. It may be better to show a list organized by region or show the closest location you do cover to the one
