1. Nautilus: If I search, it locks up at the first letter typed and have to force quit.
This was a problem with #tracker3 and doing a reset of it solved it.
2. Gnome extensions: After reboot, #dashtopanel and #arcmenu, among others, aren’t working. I have to disable user extensions and then re-enable to get them to work.
More research determined it was just a #dashtopanel problem. In the #popos Desktop -> Dock Settings, I disabled the “dock” to resolve it.

Can anyone #recommend a full-text, indexing search for #debian #linux? It seems like there's no singular solution, like Spotlight on OSX.

I have #Akonadi and #Tracker3 running. I've considered #Recoll and #SOLR.

In practice, I wind up using #grep and locate. Grep is a a worst-case personal search engine.

Bonus points if it doesn't require lots of config and if it is lightweight when idle.

This should be easy in 2022. Right?
