Changes since v0.7.0.
Early release. In SemVer terms, anything may change before 1.0, including file formats, the HTTP API and settings, though changes to
.ochxand.ochfiles will come with conversions.
New
- Privacy policy and terms pages (#281, [#282]):
/privacyand/termsshow the service's privacy policy and terms of service as pages of their own, linked from the footer (Terms · Privacy · Licenses), sign-up and the analytics prompt./legalstill has every notice and license together.
Changed
- timescale.info's policies take effect (#282): the terms, privacy policy and copyright policy took effect on 25 October 2026, with privacy@timescale.info as the contact. The privacy policy now states the hosting (DigitalOcean, United States), how long logs and backups are kept, and how Google sign-in data is used: only the Google account identifier is kept, under the Google API Services User Data Policy's Limited Use requirements.
Fixed
- Search text rebuilt during a save or deletion (#261, [#284]): the background rebuild of a timeline's search text could log "Broken timeline index" if the timeline, or the one a fork reads through to, was saved or deleted while it ran. It now reads one consistent snapshot.
- A view left loading (#218, [#283]): after a large deletion, the desktop app could stay on its loading state with no moments drawn when a window request's reply was discarded or waited behind a prediction.
- Live updates after changing servers (#240, [#278]): a polling pass no longer checks a timeline that has left the screen, so a server switch can't report the new view's access as lost.
- A PostgreSQL test that could hang CI for hours now reports its failure instead (#238, [#279]). The publicity videos use the new logo (#274, [#275]).
