What's the consensus on search being restricted to usernames and hashtags? Is this something that's necessary to reduce harassment? Without a broader text search finding people with common interests is difficult and tedious
@red I think the search will - as it must - evolve. Basically useless now.
@TimeSnow that's my initial thought but then I'm not usually targeted for harassment. Seems like there's some useful middle ground such as being able to search "public" tweets but not "unlisted" ones
@red I'm sure it will evolve... I can't pretend to know how, but it can't stay useless as it is just too important a feature to be permanently missing.
@TimeSnow if communities decide it's crucial to safety and can see the culture using hashtags more thoroughly. I like the idea of per-instance policy though
