How to change search placeholder?

Question

So far I have tried this code in mytheme.theme:

function mytheme_form_search_block_form_alter(&$form, \Drupal\Core\Form\FormStateInterface $form_state, $form_id) {
    $form['keys']['#attributes']['placeholder'] = t('Custom wording');
}

And this one:

function mytheme_form_alter(&$form, \Drupal\Core\Form\FormStateInterface $form_state, $form_id) {
  if ($form_id == 'search_block_form') { 
    $form['keys']['#attributes']['placeholder'] = t('Custom wording');
  }
}

Also this one:

function mytheme_form_search_block_form_alter(&$form, $form_state) {
    $form['keys']['#attributes']['placeholder'] = t('Custom wording');
}

Site is not crashing, but nothing happens on the placeholder.

I have based these 3 snippets on these pages:
