I registered just to post on this bug report. I'm a dev trying to switch over to Linux and I chose Ubuntu assuming it would be the most functionable distro in 2018. However I simply cannot make the transition until type-as-you-go search + indexing is not working just like on macos in 2013 and even now on windows 10.
