on: Searching on Stacker.news and ordering by "recent" - results are not in order
meta
This issue has come up a number of times now and makes it clear that user expectations for
recent
is that it'll be a strict recency sort order.
I wonder if
recent
searches should be keyword only, sorting all keyword matches strictly by date.
I vaguely remember that being the case before, but there was some other bug that made it too restrict thus often returning null results.

Yeah, I’d noticed this was happening before. I think your solution’s the best one. One rule in software is: don’t do stuff the user didn’t ask for.

Your memory matches mine. In cases where there are otherwise no results, people want
recent
to be less strict. When there are many results, people want
recent
to be strict.
