Just type from:@[your full user id] and then your search term.

Holy carp.

@SilverArrows thank you!!

[iamdavidobrien@mastodon.social]

Or try from:me as a shorter alternative.

@SilverArrows

[fishidwardrobe@social.tchncs.de]

@SilverArrows from:me is supposed to work, too

[khrys@mamot.fr]

@SilverArrows from:me works ok too

[blogdiva@mastodon.social]

you can also do ❝ from:me ❞

❝ keyword or sentence from:me ❞

i find that leaving two spaces before the "from" gives me more results

@SilverArrows "from:me" will find everything you posted

"in:library" will find everything you posted, liked or boosted

@FediTips can probably give you a list of all the available filters like date ranges & stuff but those are the ones I use the most

@SilverArrows Even easier is "from:me".
