I have been trying to search for a specific topic in a community and I just can’t find the option if there is one.

    Lol I just created a post with the same question… because I couldn’t search to see if it was asked already XD

    This is a must have feature

    Jerboa doesn’t currently have a feature to search posts/comments in a community. The most they offer is search the list of communities. I’m sure other people want this as well, and the web-ui has it, so it’s definitely possible to implement. I think just no one has gotten to it yet.

    The last few jerboa releases have had a list of new contributors a mile long though, maybe somebody will grab this feature soon.

      I don’t know if I’m just stupid, but I don’t see a way to search the list of communities. Do you mind telling me how?

        Bottom bar, second icon from the left. Until very recently it looked like a checklist icon, I think as of today’s update it might be a magnifying glass.

        That brings up a list of your subscribed communities, with a searchbox at the top that searches all the communities your instance knows about (not just your subs).
