I agree. The search is shit. Almost have to know their npub to find anyone
#AskNostr Can anyone tell me why this is happening and or how to fix it?
For some reason I am unable to find #JackMallers when I search for his page and I am unable to tag @jackmallers in this post.
I thought maybe I could find him if I went to a fellow #Bitcoiners page and checked #Mutal friends and realized that’s not an option, at least in nostr:npub18m76awca3y37hkvuneavuw6pjj4525fw90necxmadrvjg0sdy6qsngq955 . So if I could make a suggestion, when looking up who someone follows can we see

Actually it always works for me, he was just one user that I was struggling to find and now I know why. 🙃
