The problem with HN Algolia search is that they never updated it after comment scores were hidden. The default is to sort comments by score, but all recent comments are ranked last because their score is just assumed to be 1 or something like that.

I also wish it searched both stories and comments by default. I guess you can set your own defaults but meh, I use many different computers and don't change defaults as a general rule because it's a hassle to keep all the computers in sync.



Ah, that makes sense! I always wondered why any search term would just return 8 year old stuff at the top.
