Hello! As you know, updates based pricing affected the way we allow the users to filter items. We can use user specific column to build custom advanced filters using choice component. Now, every time the user changes a value, Glide counts as an update. For a listing or directory app, a user can m…

Agreed. Another reason why (in my opinion) User Specific Columns shouldn’t count towards updates. @DJP

Thanks for taking the time to explain Jeff. Much appreciated… If I had the ear of those in power, I would advise them to temporarily not count changes on USC as updates as that kinda highlights the need for a better filter… Most Glide developers overlooked that short coming because of the work-ar…
