What doesn't get searched (yet) ​

  • Tag names in isolation. Filter via tag chips in the filter bar instead.
  • Completed/dropped items older than recent. These are archived out of the default result set.

  • Short queries work best. "morning bell" finds the project faster than "launch morning bell subscription service."

  • Escape to close. Or click outside.
