QUOTE(dragontamer8740 @ Jan 14 2023, 03:18)  I can say confidently that I have faith in the management that these changes aren't meant to be antagonistic.
I thought we made the functionality "worse" just for some shits and giggles.

Ok, let's say I'll be away for a week and come back and I want to know how much content I missed and wanted to start from the day I left moving in chronological order from there (hitting last and using the back seek) is there a way to get that time frame isolated

I'm only really asking because I recall you said you implemented the ability to search dates in this very forum. I tested using the input that was written on the pinned updates on page 1 and it didn't work. Judging by your responses, you gutted that between the time you put that in the post and now. I could be wrong or I wasn't clear in my inquisition. So I'll ask as directly as I can, is there, and if so how, a way to search for galleries that were posted on a specific day?

Like it says in the update notes, click the Jump / Seek button, then either just enter the date directly (yyyy-mm-dd format), or click the "use date selector" button and select a date with the control that shows up.

Hey it's me again, stumbling over some oddity with negative searches. A positive search seems to treat spaces differently than a negative search. For example, the searches "twilight sparkle" "ai generated" "twilight sparkle" -"ai generated" which I would expect to find a distinct set of results, will both find this gallery.

Yeah, positive searches generally use index lookups while negative searches generally use basic string matching, so you can see things like that. It's not impossible to make it consistent, but it would just involve making negative searches less specific by stripping non-indexable characters, so I'm not sure if it's really worth-while.

I understand every single word in this post but I don't understand any of them when you put them together :3

I thought you are blessed by the tech god. You disappointed me my dear. (My tiny little mind can't handle what I just read either)

If anything I'd wish for the positive search to be more specific. I'm not sure if that's possible, but even if it is, some leniency with regards to spaces/minusses and the like probably has its merits. So it's okay I guess.

I believe you when you say that the removal of "true" pagination was necessary. Is there any reason you can't apply some kind of "fake" pagination to the new system? Like, why not just count the number of times you've clicked the "next" button and then display that on the page? That way you'd at least have a sense of "where" you are.
