I wanted to check if the community I was about to post in already had a similar post. When I selected that community in the search page and typed in the keywords, I still got the results from other communities and instances.

    Can you share an example where it works?

    The above link only yields results from asklemmy@lemmy.ml. So in a way, it is what you asked for.

    This query shows me your post as the first result.

    This query shows me my comment as the first result.

    Yes it is unreliable, but it’s the best I know to (sometimes) do the job. I would also appreciate a better solution, that’s how I came to this thread.

      Interesting, they don’t seem to work for me. Can’t find neither my post, nor your comment.
