Search doesn't work at all for me on Safari, either mobile or MacOS, but
I tried Brave and it appears to work just fine, so presumably that includes other Chrome-based browsers... which I generally try to avoid, because I don't know how deep Google's tentacles go.
So anyone else, chiming in either way, what browser(s) are you using?
I searched in (desktop) Brave, which again, seems to work just fine, and then just pasted the resulting URL into (desktop) Safari, and those same search results work out fine.
So it appears to be a very superficial issue with how WebKit is dealing with the search text-entry interface.
Note: after I wrote everything below, I wanted to at least try to see if search functionality worked in a different browser, since I use Safari... and you know what? It totally does... or at least it does in Brave. So it looks like this may just be a Safari-specific issue, yomomma. Is that what you're using, too? What about other folks? Does Search not work in other browsers, too? I don't personally plan on switching browsers over this, so I hope it'll get fixed, especially as this bug occurs across all the win sites, but maybe it's not going to be especially urgent if us Safari users are too small a minority.
With the recent upswing not only in double posts, but triple, quadruple and beyond # of posts recently, all over a short period of time, the easiest solution would be to tell board members "Search before you post. And use descriptive headlines when you post."
But without Search working (it doesn't work for me, certainly, and this post now confirms I'm not alone), it's tougher to put the blame all on our serial Dupe Artists, or help them to reform their ways.
Also (and I don't think this is a terribly controversial statement) Search is pretty much a critical basic function of any message board.
I’m spamming myself content from here via email. As I’d like to build a site that are evidence based from our posts: whether they’re meme or serious articles. If I want to search something here, I can’t. But search via browser using “greatawakening.win” and your search term will yield you some results.
u/Doggos is who to talk to about that. He's the owner of .win and he mods at TheDonald
Go to ugh i know but google and put this in the search box
site:greatawakening.win <search term>
I think I remember Q saying something about that. There’s a ton of them tricks if you look it up
I noticed using tools and looking up before certain dates helps find covered up articles and studies
Works on duckduckgo.com and search.brave.com as well
You can use this feature on Qwant and DDG as well.
TL;DR on my longer comment, but:

Here, just try this link - see if this works: https://greatawakening.win/search?params=george+magazine&community=GreatAwakening

It sounds like you downloaded Brave on your iPhone. If so, its behavior similar to Safari isn't unexpected.
While Brave is based on Chromium on desktop platforms, in its iOS iteration, it is based on the same WebKit foundation as Safari.

I 100% agree with my good buddy here!

Search function has never worked for me using Brave on iPhone
Thank you soooooo very much, you have no idea how much Ive missed the search function. Brave works for me on iMac.
Now we just need people to post relevant titles instead of stuff like "this" & "Things that make ya go mmmm" etc.
Try searching under hot and not new
Pleaase fix!!!
