@readbeanicecream This bugs me too lol, there's currently an issue open on Codeberg here but it doesn't seem to be a priority as of now.
As a workaround if you can install either Tampermonkey or Userscripts extension in your browser, the kbin enhancement script has an option for adding a cancel button to comments at least.
AFAIK kbin is way early in development and got slammed by a wave of new users after Rexxit happened.
So the dev’s priority right now is server and platform stability, and it’s already way smoother than it was a couple weeks ago. That being said, there are a ton of features planned and development seems to be going pretty quickly at the moment
I sorted by top in Apollo a few times and it seems random
I, like many others, add “Reddit” to almost all of my google searches to get those sort of forum results instead of articles, etc. Obviously kbin, Lemmy, and the like are still in their infancy, but is there any viable way the Fediverse could become searchable in this manner? Or are we forever limited to exact string searches within our own instances?
