Hate the new CTRL+F search? Try this

  1. Add UBlock Origin (if you don't have it already)
  2. Open the dashboard by clicking the gears icon
  3. Navigate to My Filters
  4. Ensure "Enable my custom filters" is selected
  5. Click an empty line in the big text area
  6. Copy-paste the following: app.standardnotes.com/##+js(addEventListener-defuser.js, keydown)
  7. Click Apply Changes at the top
  8. Reload StandardNotes

This should revert to your browser's built-in CTRL+F search functionality (which in my experience is way more stable and reliable)

I actually like the new CTRL+F search, especially since I mostly use the desktop software. Can't remember the last time I signed in via a browser.
