Please go to https://piefed.social/user/settings and tick the checkbox "My posts appear in search results". When that is unticked your posts won't appear when people use the search at https://piefed.social/search

For a long time having it unticked was the default setting and it's meant that the search results are often missing posts that people expect to be there. It'll be ticked by default from now on.

Is there any special configuration required to enable search on the instance itself?

Search has not been functioning on my own instance for quite some time.

Please wait another week or two until v1.2 is available - there is a fix for the search in that release. :)
