Can search find hidden posts/comments?

I have had the problem several times where I search for a post or comment that I know exists, but because I've got "hide after vote" enabled, it doesn't show up in search results. It's there a way to see hidden posts/comments in the search results?

Hi, I think Lemmy filters these out at a server level. If an option to include hidden posts gets exposed at an API level though I can integrate that into Connect.
- Oh, good to know. I do 90% of my Lemmying in Connect, so I didn't notice the behavior elsewhere.
  
  Thank you very much!
