BIG ANNOUNCEMENT!
You asked, threatened, even offered bribes (no joke, someone PM'd me, offering me $1,000) to fix the way our WIN's search works, and, for so long, our answer has sucked. We can't. As a .WIN, we benefit from the (may peace be upon their devs) main codebase given to all the WINs by the devs. So sometimes, when search doesn't work, we can't really do anything about it.
UNTIL NOW.
Thanks to our in-house coding genius, u/Bubble_Bursts, we have found a way to AWESOMEIZE our .WIN's search via a convenient .JS addon script you can download into your browser that adds some rogue, unauthorized features!
The script lets you scroll forever 'till the end (no pages, which makes searching for something way easier), and, well, that's it. But that's pretty fricking awesome and saves a ton of time!
Here's how to get it:
STEP ONE
Get TamperMonkey for your browser here.
Tampermonkey is the most popular userscript manager, with over 10 million users. It's available for Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Safari, Opera Next, and Firefox.
STEP TWO:
Download the script. TamperMonkey will automatically install it. Get it here:
https://files.catbox.moe/29hfz4.js
NOTE: If it doesn't automatically install, you will have to make the script inside the TamperMonkey's dashboard. If this proves necessary for lots of users, would one of you mind whipping up some quick instructions? I'll paste them here.
That's it! Oh. One more script is coming as soon as u/Bubble_Bursts is finished with it that will also awesomize a different feature.
Any suggestions? Please send us a DETAILED modmail.
Enjoy!

(kidding, can you decode that?)
Planning a git repo, and yes I plan to add more features starting with infiniscroll for users posts and comments, but beyond that whatever people here suggest. I was thinking of adding another feature to the current script where you can filter the search with another term/phrase/username to hone into the results.
And yeah happy to let anyone fork and contribute.
BTW, you were the one who gave the horizontal scroll CSS the other day right? I was gonna push it in, but then realised it was truncating text posts. Didnt get around to fixing it.
I saw that. Is it fixable at all? Pls at having a look at it at the bottom of your list?
