@copper.hat I am around now. Generally, also chat can be used asynchronously. Feel free to just leave a request. Do not hesitate to ping me so that I won't miss it.

Dear @user21820, I tried searching using the user id of someone from math.stack, but got no results. What am I missing?

@Arrow Did you switch the site from SO to Mathematics?
For example, your comments on this site containing Grothendieck: data.stackexchange.com/math/query/124643/…
Hmm, that query is not really that great. :-(
You might try this one instead: data.stackexchange.com/math/query/1074444/…
And you can probably find some other similar queries on meta.

@MartinSleziak Thanks for chiming in! I rarely try to search comments, so I didn't know whether the SEDE query the other post linked to was working well or not.
I'm going to bookmark yours.
