Idea, low priority feature suggestion for Gossip Client (npub189j…3tg8) mikedilger (npub1acg…p35c):

the recoll #desktopsearch engine is IMO a totally awesome/underrated (even though the UI/UX is admittedly not sufficiently polished) tool for people who want to search for stuff on their local machine/network.

If there were a plugin/filter (for recoll indexing the gossip database), one could use the powerful search capabilities of recoll to find nostr notes stored locally by gossip.

As written above, it's just an idea. Might not work well, because the gossip db changes constantly rendering the recoll index obsolete. Not sure.


Aside:
I just like the whole concept of being able to search every bit of text on my computer from this one search tool. Which is why I tweaked recoll and my podcast application gPodder so that the podcast episode descriptions are stored in the metadata of each episode audio file which is then indexed and thus searchable by recoll.
