I’m not sure what EXACTLY you’d be looking for from a search feature as I’m mostly a light user myself, but there’s a search option which will search the contents of all your notes. I can’t tell you how robust it is, but it does have exclusion (desiredTerm -excludeTerm) search at least, and there’s standard Find/Replace functionality once you’re in the specific note.
Does Joplin have a search function within notes? And it is fully FOSS, yes?

You can search through notes no problem.
Joplin itself is AGPL. Unfortunately, Joplin Server is under “JOPLIN SERVER PERSONAL USE LICENSE”.
While I really like Joplin, I’m thinking of making the switch to something fully open source.
not sure I follow your comment. Joplin Server would be relevant when you sync your notes through them, no? Or how does it affect the app?
If you want to sync your notes to a central place, you can selfhost Joplin Server.
You don’t need the server. It happily works with storing notes as files and syncing them with syncthing.
Joplin server is a separate product that is for if you want to run a web server to sync and collaborate on notes.
