Test image comment:
Are you sure you were looking at the right “here, here and here”? I just checked the raw post HTML in the forum database and there’s no links in that sentence:
<p>In the current stage of LLMs, one may reasonably have short timelines for AGI coming in the next 3-5 years, as given here. Here, here, here, and here. It might...</p>

Not a bug—it’s from Where are you donating this year, and why? which is grandfathered into an old experimental voting system (and it’s the only post with this voting system—there are a couple of others with different experimental systems).

The fix for this is now live—thanks!
This fix is now live on the forum
We actually deployed a whole new search backend last week, and it looks like you found the first bug.
I’ve created a pull request on Github that should fix the quotation marks not working, and you can expect that to be live on the site in 1-2 days. In the mean time, your best bet is probably the Google search with

This (and your other comment about tables in posts) should now be fixed—thanks for letting us know!
FLutter seems interesting, but I think it’s potential will always be limited as long as it’s tied so closely to Dart. Also, given Google’s track record of killing products/platforms with very little warning, I don’t think I’d be too comfortable building an entire business in a Google framework that’s tied to a Google programming language unless the community around it was big enough to take on maintenance if/when it gets killed, which I don’t think is the case here.
+1 for Expo though—it makes life super easy. There’s also the simple alternative of just making a responsive website and writing tiny native apps for each platform that just wrap the site in a webview.
Thanks for the suggestion—I’ve made a note of it!
Great suggestion! I’ve added it to our list of features to consider.
