[BUG] Search doesn't search for #hashtags

Open supernovae opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

Is there an existing issue for this?

  • [X] I have searched the existing issues

Current Behavior

  • Open Mastodon for iOS.

  • Click Search glass

  • Type "#hiking" (putting on quotes because github is trying to shortcode the hashtag - remove quotes to try on app)

Only hashtags return. You can click on a hashtag, but i'd expect with the pivot you should be able to click on posts and see posts with that hashtag in it.

Expected Behavior

  • Open Mastodon for iOS
  • Click Search
  • Type in your # hashtag
  • See hashtags, head to pivot page, see posts with hashtags in it.

For example, the experience in Ivory works this way. Screenshots below

Click search icon, type # hiking and hit enter and you see posts tagged with hiking hashtag

Steps To Reproduce

Download iOS App Click Search glass type # hashtag to search for

Hashtags show up but pivot to posts and there are no posts - seems expected behavior is to drill down through hashtags and see posts but seems like a bug you can't pivot

Environment

- Device: iphone 11
- OS:15
- Version:1.4.9
- Build: 224

Anything else?

For reference, the app’s behavior matches the search field on the official site — if you select “posts” there are no results

I'd say the behavior is broken on the official website too. I created an issue to show here:

https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/23323

I'd expect i want to find "@person" as much as i want to find posts from @person

And I'd like to find hashtags that include my hashtag as well as posts that include my hashtag.
