How do I perform a text search in my current view?

I don't get it. The only possibility for searching is the 'search' button at the bottom. But that just searches through all community names.

How can I do the same for post titles or whole discussions? Am I missing something? Thanks a lot.

Yes, it is missing on Jerboa.

Thunder is probably the only app that has implemented search properly. But it's performance is not the best - it is very slow, and feels like as if I'm using electron app.

Jerboa is very performant, but I'm not a fan of not having to opt out of tap gesture. Similarly, Eternity is also performant, but I don't like it for it's messy UI and improperly categorized settings page.

Eternity's search is the most powerful IMO. It's so sad that it doesn't get updates :(

Thanks for the feedback. To add to the clients: Voyager has implemented a quite well working search function, but got veeery slow on Firefox recently. But it's important to mention that (my guess) this behavior is not Voyager's fault, but conspiracy on rather Firefox' requests are handled with lower priority... Yep, just a personal feeling, nothing I could prove.

As in Lemmy deprioritizes it? It definitely doesn't, you can always change ur user agent to chrome. Would make it pretty much impossible detect it.

No no, I don't mean Lemmy. I'm talking of external links. It feels like some server replies are not as responsive once I use Firefox, while chrome-based browsers react very fast.
