What I did: Searched for - can't unpin tab

What I expected: To find articles with all of the words 'can't, 'unpin' and 'tab'

What I got: 1000 results: Matches for every article containing any of the words 'can't', 'unpin' and 'tab'.

This makes the search useless, if there was an advanced search option available then it wouldn't be so bad but there isn't.

Best in such a case is to remove all common words and only search for unpin

Note that there is an advanced search.
