Summary
Self-hosted instances seem to have a 1000 result cap on guild message searches (probably DMs too but untested). This cap either doesn't exist on the official instance or is set much larger. Large search on self-hosted instance (in:channel-name + after:1970 filter which should include every message in guild):

Steps to reproduce
- Find a self-hosted guild with >1000 messages, one can be created through migrating a Discord text channel with >1000 messages using a tool such as DiscoReaper
- While viewing the guild, use any search filter that would include >1000 messages, examples include
in:channel-nameandafter:1970
