Talksearch.io - Advanced Bitcointalk Search Engine

[NotATether]

Meanwhile, I repeated the below query after update above, and I am still not getting expected result.

Another query I did was, "I was fucked, do not repeat same mistakes as me" which is title of this thread — and results were irrelevant instead of showing thread which I was expecting. Title was literally copy-pasted here!?

Your topic is not in the index yet. As I mentioned earlier, a third of the topics could not be uploaded because the process was interrupted when I ran out of disk space. I'm still working on adding them.

@NotATether, thanks for the powerful tool.

Talksearch.io is so important for users that I took the initiative to translate your topic and share it in the Russian local board of the forum. I chose to use the first-person narration ^{i.e. NotATether} to ensure that no details were lost in the translation.

Thanks for the work, there is still a lot to do but this is a colossal amount of effort.
Sent a small donation of $100 , good luck

[NotATether]

New app update v1.0.2 published

This is a minor update that publishes the donation addresses at the footer of the page. Suggested by Igebotz.

As a reminder, I am still working to index all topics as well as new ones, so stay tuned for further developments on that front.

Maybe it's a consequence of replacing search engines with conversational AI, though from what I've witnessed, libert19 commonly makes these kinds of posts (to the point where I can hardly tell if it is extremely sophisticated trolling or natural).

That was genuine query and I don't troll, may be my posts just come off like that.

Regarding query, even before AI if you search stuff on Google, for example, "Messi's first match" you would find relevant result, so intention was same here.

In that case, I think it's a bit much to expect from a tool like this, which is probably just searching through indexed data and nothing more than that...

...Though if it was just searching indexed data, this should work. I suppose the answer might be:

- Indexed ALL posts (up to February 2025) ^{*Operational bugs have prevented me from uploading one-third of the posts, which is actively being fixed}

Maintenance alert

There will be planned downtime for a few hours (maximum) today in order to work on the Elasticsearch cluster.

Do you intend to move the hosting elsewhere in an attempt to lower the monthly costs? Even with that generous donation of $100 it only covers 66% of the monthly cost (to run the service for a month). If the project is going to have a long term future, I think finding an alternative host with lower costs will be an important step.

Dedicated servers are prepaid and often sold in units of one, so while useful for small projects, they're a very bad fit for a service that needs to scale and must always remain online (the irony, I know)

I plan on adding Altcoinstalks and some other forums & mailing lists into the index eventually.

Currently this maintenance is to fix up the cluster "indices" (entities inside the search software used for storing post data) that I screwed up when attempting to upload the rest of the post data a few days ago. That's why the maintenance page is required, as search is not possible without them.


Maintenance is complete.

I've always been impressed by the dedication of the community to improve the user experience for us all. This one addresses probably one of the more mentioned problems in recent years (in fact for a very long time). I've tested it out a little, and it seems to be a lot better than the forum search. I'm sure some users will be put off by the fact it's on a third party website, but hopefully this site gets some use in the long term.

Thanks NotATether for yet another great contribution to the community!

[JollyGood]

I reiterate the comments mad by Welsh, it is commendable thatand are facing $150  forum members manage to find ways to improve/assist in different ways according to their skills and depending on how much time they have on their hands. Having said that, if you have paid in advance for the servers and are facing $150 payments every month subsequently, what has been your total expenditure and when does the account need replenishing?

This infrastructure is all postpaid and my bill arrives at the beginning of each month.

 Roadmap ____________________

- Continuously ingest posts from Bitcointalk (immediate priority)
- Refine search result quality
- Introduce filters for user, date, etc.

You need to add features asap because right now how it's better than going to search engine like Google and ask to find a string using specific search: 'site: bitcointalk.org "bitcoingirl"'. Congratulations on your project. It's nice to see community members are trying to create tools that will be useful for the community.

Congratulations NotATether for your search engine, and thank you for sharing it with all users

Keep up the good work!

Checked this out again and there has been a couple of good updates and it's still as fast as it was. I assume it's a struggle trying to maintain the speed while indexing more data, but it's working well so far.

I will be adding this to my top options for searching on the forum now. I think it will great it theymos can add some custom search engines like this and ninjastic when a user clicks the on the search icon.

I was doing some tests, until I realized that there is no possibility to choose the order in which the results appear.

It would be interesting to be able to choose whether we want to see the most recent result first, or the oldest one. Or if we want to see the most frequent or most similar terms used in the search.

I think that would be interesting, just a suggestion.

I'm working on that.

I will add the new translated topics now.

Moving the data to the larger, "warm" node means that searches became slightly slower, but I plan to improve this by splitting up the index of Bitcointalk posts into smaller parts, specifically: Non-english posts, posts in Archival, or spam (e.g. Bounties). Then whatever's left over after that will not be so large, and might make search queries perform faster.


Currently, I have the ability to scrape any topic or update it, but I still have to automate it.

Tested it for the first time and that's what I'm missing too. Sorting by time of creation and possible number of views or comments of a certain topic. It would help to identify more relevant results.

@NotATether maybe my pm has somehow disappeared in your message center or you haven't had the time yet or simply forgot about it...
i wanted to remind you again that the polish translation of your search engine is now ready - would be nice if you would include it in your overview
