Add a simple search function

Thanks for your software! Strange that apparently nobody else made one.

I would like to have some simple way to search in the HTML. I know that I can use "search" and then "strg +F", but for a more exact search it´s not very good.

Maybe make it so that it´s possible to only search one Subreddit or everything. The search itself should check the title + start post. Maybe with a Checkbox comments. Although, I guess because you would have to search html directly it would be easier to include comments too. Would be nice if the search is exact matching with the option to use regex.

Thanks dude. Yeah the search use case and archives don't seem like they mix, but why not. There are some js on-page search libraries that could maybe help. All of the data could be rendered initially as json to be way more flexible.
