Search bar uses "or" for multiple keywords. That is a bad default!

Searching "st-link_cli" gives 137 results. Searching "st-link_cli linux" gives 4000 hits. "https://community.st.com/t5/community-guidelines/how-to-search/ta-p/575262" does not give a hint how to search for hits with hit for multiple keywords together. This is not helpful!

    Right, the search help from @Lina_DABASINSKAITE should mention that an AND function can be realised with a plus sign in front of each word. For the example "+st-link_cli +linux" there are currently 6 hits.

    Hello @Uwe Bonnes , @Peter BENSCH , 

    Thanks for brining this up this very valuable feedback. First, let me check if this is an expected behavior and if so, I will adjust the guidelines. 

    If you notice anything else, let me know. 

    Thanks a lot,
    Lina
