Inconsistent, erroneous forum search results
I know this is a pointless excercise, since Adobe doesn't participate here, but I'll document this in any case:
The search tool on the new Gainsight platform reports wildly different numbers of results for the same query. For example:
https://community.adobe.com/search?q=sync%20colour%20labels&category=Lightroom%20Classicreports 130, 274, 180, etc. as the number of result posts.
When I scroll to the very end of the search results by hitting the Page Down button (with auto-repeat), the actual number of results displayed is many times the original number: 1543, 529, 838, etc. (I counted by copying the page’s DOM tree from Chrome into a text file and searching that text file.)
But then the summary at the top always changes to "100 Posts".
And the displayed results include a large number of duplicates, e.g.

These results are a sham -- just more of the low quality we're coming to expect from the new forums.
