Forensuche soll standardmäßig die neuesten Beiträge anzeigen, nicht die ältesten

This post in another topic sums it up well:

I tried the “search prefer recent post” and it does help because it is bringing up more recent posts but unfortunately it does not list the posts in chronological order so it is a little confusing when looking at the results. Adding “l” to the end of the search criteria seems to give me the same results as if I chose “Latest” but it still says “Relevance” in the “Sort by” pull down menu so it’s a little confusing or misleading to the user because the results not by relevance and it would seem that adding the character makes it impossible for the user to actually search by relevance.

Personally I always change it to “Latest post” and search a second time, usually not even looking at the first “Relevance” search results.
