How can I search for text in posts only of people I follow? #mastodon
@cartocalypse Extremely-unhelpful-but-technically-correct answer: "set `following` to `true` in your v2 search API request".
From a quick look, though, none of the clients (10+) I've got handy show a "followers-only" option which is a poor state of affairs, frankly, and weird because Mastodon, Akkoma, and GotoSocial instances all support the `/api/v2/search` endpoint and correctly interpret `following`.
I guess email your client devs and ask them to offer the option?

@zimpenfish Thank you! Wow, that is disappointing. :(
It's mainline Mastodon from what I know.
And I can't even just hold page down to load a couple of days and use browser search because modern web.
And there is no plain pagination available.
Bleargh.
@zimpenfish Oh, actually...
Since the search on the website simply does API requests, I had zero issues to grab the URL from the browser Network log and add "following=true" to find what I looked for.
Yay for you!
@cartocalypse Excellent work! Glad I could help.
