Is is possible to use search operators on Lemmy search like on Google or a typical search engine, or add support to it? - Lemmy.world

Like this (add some suggestions and additions in the comments however you want): - "Hello" - Returns results with only the word “hello” - "Hello World" - Returns results with only the phrase “hello world” -------- - case:on - enable case sensitive search - nsfw:no - Do not show NSFW posts - nsfw:yes - Show only NSFW posts ------ * community:<[email protected]> - If instance.com is not provided, it returns the search results from a community from the current instance. Otherwise, it returns the community from the hosted instance: e.g: community:[email protected] * instance:instance.com - returns results from a specific instance. * If instance:instance.com community:community, then search community from that specified instance. * before:yyyy-mm-dd - Returns results from before a date. * after:yyyy-mm-dd - Returns results from after a date. ------ - “-” before a phrase, keyword, community:[email protected], instance:instance.com, Excludes them from the results. Phrases like “hello world” should have the dash prefixed like this: -"hello world". Examples: - For words and phrases: - cyberpunk -2077 - Returns post/comments with the keyword “cyberpunk” but not “2077” - -"hello world" Removes posts/comments containing “hello world” from the search results - For communities: -community:hello, -community:[email protected] - For instances: -instance:my.instance.com ------- About brackets in community:, instance: - Used to select multiple communities and instances (separated with a comma or semicolon), for example - community:{[email protected],[email protected]} hello -world - Returns search results only from communities [email protected] and [email protected] with the keyword “hello” and exclude world from post/comment results - -instance:{instance1.com,instance2.com,instance3.nft} community:{[email protected]} hello -world - Exclude instances instance1.com, instance2.com, instance3.nft, show post/comments from community [email protected]. Exclude posts/comments containing “world”. ------- Here is my example usage: -------- Say you want to search [email protected] for "hello world": community:[email protected] "hello world" Shows results from [email protected] with only the phrase "hello world"
