Toots not being searchable was actively requested as an anti-harassment tool.
Full-text search allows bad actors to search on words representing viewpoints they don't like (for example, "Quran" or "abortion") and attack the people using them.
I mention this to provide context, not as a defense of the idea.

  @noelle I know you arent defending it, but while it might be an anti harassment tool its also an isolating one that keeps people from finding things they are interested in. Its very hard to find people here. Again, not saying this is in any way your fault.

  @noelle I was literally just digging into the status of search on Mastodon yesterday and collected links to the top 2 github issues here: https://mstdn.io/users/deutrino/statuses/99378282368643679 #mastodev
