@lohang Well, as you can see, I haven't "discontinued" the instance. The overall experience with #Epicyon has been too good to discontinue it abruptly. Besides, those who defederate me will do it again even if I start using something else.
I've been trying out various things privately, seeking solutions. It did not occur to me to go and ask the matrix room: #epicyon:matrix.libreserver.org until today! It turns out that Epicyon does support full text search. I was just told that using an ' (apostrophe) right before the search string indicates a full text search of your own posts. Thanks @bob and @hosh for clarifying this!
Full text search is a hidden gem or a not-so-well-documented feature in Epicyon. For example, if I want to find my posts that mention WordPress, I should enter 'WordPress in the search box. If I wish to find out how many times I have talked about "colours and composition", I should enter 'colours and composition.
This significantly resolves the problem 2) described in the previous post.
