The original post you've quoted here is out of date in some respects. I'll work on a new one when v2 is stable. In particular, the "exact phrase in double quotes" search can be so slow it's basically unusable, on the old system, and I don't think wildcard* searches* still work. Everything works fine on v2 (probably).
It's just that the more sophisticated search options (double-quotes, minus sign to negate) uses MySQL full text search which works, but is incredibly slow.

Could you ping me if/when you update the tips post? I'll replace this.
Which lines should I strikethrough in the meantime?

Sorry, I take it back, it's mostly accurate after all. Couple of typos in the "NSFW" section: should read
