I am still getting a handle on the full power of #Mastodon #search capabilities, but the ability to combine queries and have queries that target specific data is very powerful. I thought I would share an example.

I wanted to catch up on reporting on threats to public federal research funding for universities in the last 1-2 days. This query got me what I was looking for:

“After:2025-04-01 from:\@npr\@flipboard.com fund”

Change the news site account to suit your needs, of course.

Your mission, if you choose to accept it, is to find factually-accurate information online in 2025.

Interesting, pithy & informative.
Well worth your time.

Is there actually any search you can perform on a Mastodon instance without Elasticsearch? I know I can search for a single hashtag, but not for two or more?

This is beyond…

#LeMonde reporting that a French scientist traveling to Houston to attend a conference was denied entry to #US after a #search of his #phone & #computer revealed messages critical of #Trump's #science cuts, "which [says #CPB] conveyed hatred of Trump & could be qualified as terrorism". Computer confiscated.

Kagi has been the most groundbreaking research tool I’ve quite possibly ever had access to. Check out Kagi asap. @kagihq

Install ChatGPT in iOS and use it as your default search engine within Safari. You can enable it as the default for searches, but it requires a few more steps than the typical changing of the default search.

Since March 5, my #Mastodon posts no longer appear in #search results. One other user at least noticed it too:

Anyone else, perhaps?

"AI models incorrectly answered more than 60 percent of queries about news sources."

"Perplexity provided incorrect information in 37 percent of the queries tested, whereas ChatGPT Search incorrectly identified 67 percent (134 out of 200) of articles queried. Grok 3 demonstrated the highest error rate, at 94 percent."

Ho fatto qualche test con #AIMode di #Google.

Com'è andata? https://www.linkedin.com/posts/alessiopomaro_aimode-google-aioverviews-activity-7306207962857967617-9pbx

Good grief. This is far, far worse than I thought possible. On average, #AI #search assistants were confidently incorrect on > 60% of queries. Especially pleased Grok 3 was incorrect on > 94% of queries! All tip of the iceberg stuff.

AI agents delivered "confident presentations of incorrect information, misleading attributions to syndicated content, and inconsistent information retrieval practices."

How many years I needed to learn how to search my own posts. It's too easy. Type into the #search:

from:@username searchwords
or
from:me searchwords

It also works (for yourself) if you have disabled being in the public search.
Thanks @MythingPerson for the 2nd, much easier method!

Put this in search field:

has:video from:shoppingtonz@mastodon.social

Hey fediverse, you got better ways to search for videos on the fediverse?(FediVideo)

I think this may even beat Sepia Search! (to some degree)

What is everyone using for search that is not google? Tried a couple but not found a good alternative so far #search
