Not a happy morning...

Imagine this: Two collections.

Collection 1: Authors with 130+ records Collection 2: Ideas with 1,200+ records Goal: Delete all records from the ideas collection, page by page.

Step 1: I mistakenly selected all 96 records on the first page of the authors collection, thinking it was the ideas collection. Step 2: Realizing my error, I switched to the ideas collection and selected the first 96 records. Step 3: I hit delete.

Outcome: 96 records gone from the authors collection. Another 96 gone from the ideas collection. Why were the authors' records still selected? The state didn't reset. Strange.

Technically, it's when a user goes from one page to another, state resets from the previous page. But how it didn't in my case.

I had spent three weeks gathering this data. It wasn't easy—scouring different sources, conducting research, and painstakingly compiling it all.

😭 😿 *Please help to get my data back. It really matters to me. *😥 🥹 😢

Thank you so much for your time.

TL;DR
Appwrite Cloud Beta caused a data loss issue for a developer. They accidentally deleted records from one collection while trying to delete from another due to a persistent selection state. The developer lost valuable data and is seeking help to recover it.
