--> Only because in this era of instant gratification, some people may need the 'tutorial' that there IS more than one page.To be honest: if you check how many post with something like "compressed...?!" are posted between updates, that's not necessary at all, it's usually less than a page of search results. And I'm not going to tell people "If you can't find what you're looking for on the first page, please click on 'Go To the next page of search results'" -- like I have to tell people how to breath
NOTE - I'm a gen-X'er too. I actually know what the DDS is, and how to use a card-catalog. The creativity we learned in that pre-Net era is lost on i-Gen.
--> I think I bring this up specific to co/\/\pressed, since almost everyone who posts a version does so as "<version> co/\/\pressed" to make it easier to search for.Agreed. The post I linked is the most basic version of how to use the search. If people in 2023 don't know how to use search engines in general, something else went wrong in the first place, and they should not be allowed to use the internet at all
Just a thought.
Also note - I'm definitely linking this when people ask for search help. That's why I'm asking for a couple tweaks. It's not just to be a jerk
