Looking for a way to fuzzy-search the list of magazines (kbin.social)

From what I'm seeing, you have to be spot-on with what you type for your search. Case sensitivity, etc.

Is there no fuzzy-search option?

Oh I assume once elastic search makes it into the stack we will have this. But that'll probably be a bit yet for full text searches not to mention the increase on server load.

I meant searching through the list of magazines. Not through the entire corpus of content.

Athough I've been doing more digging and am now wondering where I saw the "exact match only" come up, because it now seems that I do get case-insensitive results while searching for magazines.

Blah. Not sure where I saw that now. And doing everything on mobile is a bit like looking through a keyhole. It'll be different once I've been here a while, I'm sure.

I’m having the same thoughts, especially that feeling of looking through the keyhole. Being on a tablet or laptop is a much better experience.
