What do I submit?
Can I share the UI/source code in the comments?

Is this the beginning of enshittification of bluesky? I can not search their website using the search icon they present to me on their website.
Would you agree that it is bad UI, or do you just expect social media platforms to be this way nowadays for users who are not logged in (to mitigate spamming of the search functionality I guess)?
Search is pretty expensive in terms of CPU and RAM usage, so it's a common target in DDoS attacks and I'm not too surprised that they lock it down. Github also requires you to log in to use their code search.
Yeah I still remember the time in 2017 where search was not as locked down (on github) as it is today. I kind of miss it.
