@j3j5 @OkieSpaceQueen @briankrebs Well that woke me up. I’ve wanted to re-find things I’ve interacted with a lot. Looking around I see that @FediTips has a nice list of search operators and other features here:

https://fedi.tips/how-do-i-search-for-stuff-on-mastodon/

This all assumes your instance is running at least Mastodon 4.2.0 and has the ElasticSearch feature.

This is the current operator list the article provides for Mastodon 4.2.0. Read the full web page for more details.

  • has:media – Only shows posts with an attachment (images, audio, video)
  • has:poll – Only shows posts with a poll
  • has:embed – Only shows posts with a link that produces some kind of embedded media (such as a YouTube or PeerTube link)
  • language:fr using language codes – Only shows posts using that language, the example would filter for posts in French. Click here to see a complete list of language codes on Mastodon.
  • is:reply – Only shows posts that are replies
  • is:sensitive – Only shows posts marked as sensitive
  • from:(FEDIVERSE ADDRESS HERE) – Only shows posts by that particular user, for example from:@FediTips
  • from:me – Only shows posts you have made yourself
  • in:all – Searches all posts visible to you
  • in:library – Only shows posts you have interacted with or written yourself
  • before:date, during:date, after:date – Filters for posts before, during or after the selected date. Dates are written in the format YYYY-MM-DD, so for example posts after 1st June 2023 would be after:2023-06-01
