Auto-focus the search field

This lets you type right away when you load the page rather than having to click the field or navigate to it using the tab key.

You can already focus on search with / so i don't see the issue

At least for me, when I visit the page, my goal is to search for a word. Websites where you primarily search for things (like Google, dictionary.com, etc.) autofocus the field to make this easier.

Yea autofocus is better than the undiscoverable / shortcut. Autofocus messes with tab-navigation but that was never explicitly stated to be a priority, as evidenced by the lack of a "Jump to content" element (c.f. https://old.reddit.com/)

I didn't add a Jump to Content element because there's like 5 elements in before the actual content
but I do agree it could be nice
