We actually deployed a whole new search backend last week, and it looks like you found the first bug.
I've created a pull request on Github that should fix the quotation marks not working, and you can expect that to be live on the site in 1-2 days. In the mean time, your best bet is probably the Google search with site: that Neel mentioned.
Thanks for letting us know!
This (and your other comment about tables in posts) should now be fixed - thanks for letting us know!
FLutter seems interesting, but I think it's potential will always be limited as long as it's tied so closely to Dart. Also, given Google's track record of killing products/platforms with very little warning, I don't think I'd be too comfortable building an entire business in a Google framework that's tied to a Google programming language unless the community around it was big enough to take on maintenance if/when it gets killed, which I don't think is the case here.
+1 for Expo though - it makes life super easy. There's also the simple alternative of just making a responsive website and writing tiny native apps for each platform that just wrap the site in a webview.
Not a bug - it's from Where are you donating this year, and why? which is grandfathered into an old experimental voting system (and it's the only post with this voting system - there are a couple of others with different experimental systems).
