"Searching toots by their content is not enabled on this Mastodon server."

I have also signed up with a free trial with an ElasticSearch provider (bonsai.io), just to see how to connect my instance to it in order to see what else is out there in the fediverse from within my own instance, I'm sure I'm going to just love trying to hook it all up!

I've entered the url and was almost immediately listed in the "List of 286 registered and active instances:" Thank you!

Looks like some gems of info in this ^ to add to the docs.

Only just joining the Fediverse myself after all these years, the future looks cool AF!

Especially when you hear about take-down troll-gangs swarming profiles with "Report this..." clicks to get accounts banned for disagreeing with their ideologies or whatever.

Shall we have a post for "Follow on the Fediverse" for people to post links?

(assuming anyone wants to follow or be followed)

Looks like I found a new distraction anyway. Now - what to post on these things?

Filtering out all the Anime pr*n is somewhat annoying, but I've managed to get a decent stream of good fed people going!

@doodlemania2 You can probably find a github of a filterlist that has most nsfw instances blocked for you.

@doodlemania2 I’d be interested in having Elastic Search enabled in some way for my Mastodon instance.

How would we do it?

[doodlemania2]

@shanelord01 I don't think any progress was made. Still an open conversation.

We have ElasticSearch packaged and in use for other needs. Will propose it to the board and see if it can become an official app. What Mastodon does with it I'm not so sure.

Awesome.

Makes full text search work, pretty much like it does everywhere else.

See https://docs.joinmastodon.org/admin/optional/elasticsearch/

Presumably you're using it for full text search in Nextcloud?

I'd love to have on Cloudron for both reasons!

[marcusquinn]

@jdaviescoates Correct; Nextcloud, and Wordpress search using the ElasticPress plugin.

I guess to make searching on the woocommerce supplements shops you run work well/ fast?
