Looks like Elon's vibe-coding idiots managed to screw up the last remaining good thing from Twitter: the search syntax. Specifically, parentheses. You can no longer build complicated search expressions with parentheses.

Now would be a great time for Mastodon to implement full boolean search syntax.

And since I'm whining about Mastodon search, all Mastodon web UIs (not just the official one) should mirror the search string in the search page's URL. Change either one and the other changes to match. This is a super simple change and allows some very nice usage patterns.
