Description Sebastian Turzański 2024-09-13 07:07:52 UTC
There are thousands of wallpapers that get added to each app search in discovery.
Let's say I want to find KDE intinerary project I was reading about on internet.
I put "intin" as a search and instead I get hundreds of random wallpapers from store.kde.org/

I understand the concept of adding the store items to the results but I consider real programs should be on top (this is not the case now where with 'match' criteria the apps are on the bottom of all the wallpapers) or at least there should be a filter for search results.

If I search for "itin" while on the home page, I get "KDE Itinerary" as the top entry. What page are you viewing when you initiate the search?

Comment 4 Nate Graham 2024-09-20 16:51:39 UTC
Can reproduce the issue that when searching for "inti" I get a ton of wallpapers, and app entries are at the bottom.

I can't reproduce this. When I searched for 'phone', just for a few seconds I saw apps at the top, but a few seconds later, the wallpapers started to fill the top of the list. Perhaps it was just 'taking too long' for you and you didn't see that happen?
