Please let us know what’s up. Don’t tell me you use a laptop or computer. iPad. iPhone. Search has been disabled for months. Unacceptable. No reason.

Thank you! I will look into that as soon as I finish playing with kids and Saturday lawn mowing.
As I understand it, the search function has been used previously, as a bot driven attack vector which slows down the site's servers, affecting everyone, sustained periods of automated searches have a similar effect as a DDOS attack.
Interesting. But just for apple products? I’d like a reply from a mod too at some point.
Read title of post.
I have zero dell’s. I will look into them. Again I just want an explanation, one of the mods has to know.
bc apples are for communist group thinkers who pay for overpriced trendy products, you dont deserve search functions
Cool thanks for your useless input shill.
haha :) its ok microsoft turned out to be a bunch of genocidal freaks too, but lets be honest, there was never ever any reason to buy an over priced apple with different software than most people are accustomed to. it was and is a fad that is promoted by the "wokes" of the world... wouldnt be surprised if apple was blocking the search function as this is one of the only Qanon boards that exist.
I concur. There has to be sensor abilities from such a company like Apple. The woke people must be 98% of the public. It’s very hard to even hold conversation with people who think they know politics let alone human decency in these times.
Ugh. Only 9 upvotes. This world is doomed.
Really? New Gen? I have iPhone 6 and a new iPad all updated.
No shit? So new iPhone vs old iPhone you can use the search function. Still not buying a new one.
I’ll go to an Apple store this week and ask them to load this website when running tests.
prepare thine ass.
Kek clenched tight, bring the noise
Mods: <unzips pants> "You ready for this ban hammer baby?"
I was told by a moderator that we cannot discuss the moderators. And was then banned. So.... Get with it.
Edit: Why would you even down vote this? XD
Proof?
How the fuck can I prove that when it was a private message? On an account that's banned.
Screenshots? Kamaan. Why so aggressive? Take a chill pill it’s Saturday.
Ban me. Don’t care. I asked a question. Naturally, no one of “importance” reply’s with a viable answer. Maybe they are busy making breakfast or at there kids soccer game. Doubt it.
I'm not sure how one can be so mad over a search functionality. Also the mods only moderate this site. They don't run all of .win. So you're barking up the wrong tree. Furthermore, if you want to talk to the mods, you can message them without posting your hissy fit for all to see, which will likely cause the mods to ignore you.
I sent a message to one the other day. No reply. This is not a hissy fit and I will not play your argumentative games. I want all to see this. Because people have asked about it and commented the same concerns.
I'll offer some suggestions, but I'm not certain, that there is something inside the search formatting, submitted to the wb server, that is unique to IOS. Under Linux and Android, the search functions work for me.
Just a thought, have you tried searching if you turn off the local customisations in your profile and try the search function under the default settings ?
The range of available functions change depending on these settings.
I will take a look, thanks. Just figured there weren’t “extra steps” anons had to take just to use a website in 2021
I've literally never seen another post about this. It is a hissy fit, by definition. But again, it's not something the mods have anything to do with.
Search for it. You will see. Don’t use apple product though Kek
Bet an ounce of silver you didn’t search for it...
I suspect search is enabled and disabled based on how busy the servers are.
Voat.co search was regularly enabled and disabled for the same reason: because search is one of the most expensive features that is quickly disabled during DDoS attacks or periods of high volume.
The entire .win platform went down for hours today because the databases became too large and the servers ran out of room. This may have cost more resources than usual, which may explain why search has been disabled for a while.
I’m not talking about the site drop last night. I’m talking about not being able to use the SEARCH function on this website through APPLE products.
So am I. Read my comment again and if you still don't comprehend what I said then find someone to read it to you and explain the big words.
Mine hasn’t worked for at least a month as well. So what is being said still wasn’t answered by you. No need to be shitty.
I am not being shitty. As someone that wants to help/add value/dig/spread during this Great Awakening I just seek answers to why we can’t use the search function on Apple products.
Sorry that was for the haramber guy! His response to you was condescending.
Oh shoot my bad! Was cooking bacon and eggs trying to dig into this. Yeah I just want an honest answer from a Mod ya know? People get stickies and shit all the time for a scavino post or article about a low-level dig. This is big, in my eyes.
Dang breakfast sounds good!
Yeah I think it’s weird. It never worked great for me but I could usually get it to eventually work. Now I get nothing. There is just so much information I stopped saving articles along time ago because it got just overwhelming when trying to find crap.
Search has been disabled for months. MONTHS. Not an hour. Not 3 hours. Not here to argue. Just stating facts.
Bro it’s not Apple products. It has nothing to do with them.
The search function has been turned off.
It’s literally a switch the mods can turn on and off. I recall asking why it was off once but never got an answer.
That’s bewildering. Why would they disable a tool for anons to use? People say they can use it on laptops. And people post and ask about this. Haven’t seen a single mod respond on this.
Idk I just know they have the ability to do it.
I'm using search right now and it works fine.
Maybe it has something to do with the coding for mobile.
Are you using an apple product?
You are not helping. I am not trying to be uppity. Like I was with your mom last night. Kekekek
If it works on everything else, maybe it's not the site that's broken.
So I’m broken? My iPhone is too old? Not updated? My brand new iPad is broken? Please advise
The problem is that it's made by apple!
I couldn't say what it might be, but others here say it works even on their apple stuff...
Sorry fren.
I've read this entire discussion, looking for the error message that you see when the "search doesn't work". You haven't mentioned it.
It loops. Doesn’t reveal what you search. Can type in “Biden” it just sits there. Like Jill. KEK.
Well sorry I do use a desktop no problems here. By the way only a clown would have an apple product are you not aware they are the enemy and you are supporting them.
I understand this. They are from five years ago. I am trying to figure out how to get away from them. Suggestions? What type of phone? Laptop?
any 17 inch laptop, running Linux Mint, behind a VPN is a good solution. or instead of a phone, how about a 10" samsung galaxy Tab with a SIM slot, does telephony and internet very well.
Again, thank you. I know powerful people. This is why I’m so anon. Wanting to make this work. Maybe they know about me but it doesn’t matter at this point.
God is trying to tell you to go Android.
God Bless
