Query web app search functionality status

Your use case

👋

Thanks for software

What would you like to do?

Search in web app, like desktop app

Why would you like to do it?

So I can find content

How would you like to achieve it?

Using the search button/feature

It's my understanding that a contributing factor that search in web app isn't possible is because encryption is set by default?: if yes then my vote goes to disabling encryption by default and adding a prompt to enable encryption instead. I would bet most users are going to care more about search (i.e. an expected simple feature) than encryption (i.e. arguably a complex advanced feature) so currently the way things are UX is hurt; and it's hurting adoption from people I recommend Element to.

Aside - because search still doesn't exist in the web app - I would like to know why these related issues aren't still open?:

Hope this is useful and to hear back

Cheers

Have you considered any alternatives?

Ya, I - and others - now have to resort to using the desktop app
