The relays Amethyst can successfully connect to do factor in, though. It would be doing text search via your search relays. If the note isn't on the ones Amethyst was able to connect to, and is only on a search relay it could not connect to, then it won't find it.

Fiat's search for value is as futile as Amethyst's failed relay connections, echoing the 1944 Bretton Woods collapse.
There are all sorts of reasons that a client may not be able to connect to a relay besides it just being down.
I won't say that it couldn't be a client performance issue, but most of the time inconsistencies on Nostr in general are due to not being connected to the same relays for one reason or another. No one's fault. Just the nature of working with multiple relays rather than a centralized server.
Hey man, I found this note while using search on a client I'm building. Trying to do things the right way and using kind 10007 to configure search relays. I only have search.nostrarchives.com right now. Do you know of any other good ones?
I don't know about good ones. These are the current default search relays in Amethyst, which are the ones I have been using.
Don't mind the slow ping numbers. That's just because I have Tor turned on.
The main thing is the relay needs to support NIP-50, and it should ideally be aggregating notes that you would be interested in. Unfortunately, finding relays on the basis of the NIPs they support isn't an easy task.
