The search bar works though! It should be improved I agree, @good-karma is working on it I think.
Some suggestions: rank search result by how they match to the expression, not account reputation.
Also allow hive posts to be searched using the words inside, titles, etc
You can already do that on Ecency.com with advanced search options, for example if you want exact term wrap it inside double quote.
"hive price"https://ecency.com/search/?adv=1&date=all&q=%22hive%20price%22&sort=newest
very nice, will definitely use that.
I feel like giving us a lot of filter options, would be really useful for curators. Allow them to search for good content in as many ways as possible.
Either way I am glad it's working, and being worked on to be improved. Definitely a big step in my opinion.
You can always check Ecency.com with advanced search options:
