Yeah I couldn’t remember if this was still just a trust level 3 thing or not. Good call on the ask.discourse.com site.
As a reference example I threw write a discourse data explorer query which returns a list of all users who said the word “software”
into the text input bar of ask.discourse.com and got the following query back:
SELECT
p.user_id,
u.username,
COUNT(p.id) AS post_count
FROM
posts p
JOIN
users u ON u.id = p.user_id
WHERE
p.raw ILIKE '%software%'
GROUP BY
p.user_id, u.username
ORDER BY
post_count DESC;
Pretty reasonable. I can also vouch for it doing significantly more complex queries than this
