Feature Request #11223: Improve Search Algorithm

I've noticed that the current search functionality on the platform can sometimes be a bit slow and doesn't always return the most relevant results. I propose an update to the search algorithm, perhaps incorporating more advanced indexing or fuzzy matching, to significantly improve the user experience.

I agree with this. I often have to try multiple different phrasing to find what I'm looking for. A better search would be a huge help!

What kind of improvements are you thinking of, @dev_user? Full-text search with stemming, or more of a semantic search approach?

Good question, @JohnBrown. I'm leaning towards a robust full-text search with stemming and stop word removal as a starting point. Fuzzy matching would be a great addition for typos. Semantic search might be too complex for an initial implementation, but definitely something to consider for the future.
