What would you like to see?

Do you sometimes remember talking about something with the AI but don't know which chat it was in? Or where in a very long conversation, something important was mentioned but you don't quite remember where?

FTLOG Please implement a text search for the desktop version. WebUI interface can often get away with this with the built-in text search function of the browsers. Desktop users are left scrolling endlessly looking for that important message somewhere in the haystack of messages.

I'm not sure it anything-llm uses Nativefier or Electron. If it is using Elelectron it might be possible to inject some JavaScript to enable text search? Just a guess.
