this commit is an attempt at building a search functionality using only
the stuff provided by postgresql
it is, unfortunately, painfully slow:
PgSearch::Document Load (7869.1ms) SELECT "pg_search_documents".* FROM "pg_search_documents" INNER JOIN (SELECT "pg_search_documents"."id" AS pg_search_id, (ts_rank((to_tsvector('simple', coalesce("pg_search_documents"."content"::text, ''))), (to_tsquery('simple', ''' ' || 'awoo' || ' ''')), 0)) AS rank FROM "pg_search_documents" WHERE ((to_tsvector('simple', coalesce("pg_search_documents"."content"::text, ''))) @@ (to_tsquery('simple', ''' ' || 'awoo' || ' ''')))) AS pg_search_ce9b9dd18c5c0023f2116f ON "pg_search_documents"."id" = pg_search_ce9b9dd18c5c0023f2116f.pg_search_id ORDER BY pg_search_ce9b9dd18c5c0023f2116f.rank DESC, "pg_search_documents"."id" ASC LIMIT $1 [["LIMIT", 10]]
this thing is way too fast! only downside is that indexing takes a bit longer, and the search indexes are big (16Gi for 2.7 million records) i have no idea how to properly integrate it in the UI, but it seems promising :^)

super early WIP, resolves #13
this requires Meilisearch to be installed. it's ridiculously fast and super easy to use. eats up a lot of disk space however but i guess that's what it takes to have a decent search.
to set it up locally (macOS):
to enable search functionality:
to import data to meilisearch:
what's still left to be done:
/@user/questions/search//@user/searchpages too which only searches for the user's qustions/answers
