Bring back fuzzy search
In the recent AMA, it was said fuzzy search wasn't an often used feature, so it was removed. I was personally about to use it in my business's app.
If fuzzy search is really a headache to keep maintained, creating a really bad upkeep to use ratio, then I get removing it. However, if it's just "not that popular", then I would really appreciate it coming back. It's one of those features that you don't always need, but sucks to not have when you need it, and it fills out Convex's search functionality nicely.

Yeah fuzzy search would be nice to have.
I currently just run a trigger on my tables document and create a nice search string of useful fields... fuzzy would be nice feature to add to this.
