Boo!
I liked when people had to put effort in and you could discuss things without coming up in searches.
If you don't want to come up in searches don't check the box in your profile that says "I want to come up in searches".
That was never a thing on the fediverse... Search has been part of it since the beginning, just not on Mastodon
It's opt-in (as in by default you are not going to show up on any search)
Is that on new accounts too?
