I think using "Filter" is a bit too ambiguous. It usually implies that you'll be able to filter by something like the number of comments, for example. I think it should be changed to say "Search" and have its icon changed to a magnifying glass, in all places where the filter shows up.

Filter is usually used for sorting or excluding certain results, so calling this feature filter is confusing.

It makes perfect sense to just be searching where you're currently located.

I myself prefer search keyword with magnifying glass and your explanation makes sense.

@6543 what you think?
