Question Why searching two terms the results page includes posts not including one of the terms?
I searched `computer illiterate` because I think I have seen some posts including these words and would like to copy the link to them to ask a question. Later I will provide more details on the question to be asked. This question is about the Codidact search feature. As I mentioned above, I search...
