Description changed by onemaggie:

Old description:

> template and it's confusing for users. We should change to a more generic
> text or simply duplicate the pattern for both use cases

New description:

 On the home page of the theme the wording for when the query block has no
 posts is referring to search results and prompting you to choose different
 keywords. This doesn't make sense outside of the search results template
 and it's confusing for users. We should change to a more generic text or
 simply duplicate the pattern for both use cases


 To test, go to the Site Editor and select the Blog home template, scroll
 all the way to the footer and you'll see the text:


 {{{
 Sorry, but nothing was found. Please try a search with different keywords.
 }}}
