New Export to CSV action in recipes
We've had some talks with users regarding export to CSV. Even though we don't have a first-party feature like that, we made an action that supports column selection.

You may have noticed that quite a few people are migrating from Twitter to ruby.social, so you'll find me there too. So let's connect there, too https://ruby.social/web/@adrian.
We're starting work on Avo 3.0
We'll probably have another Avo 2.0 release in two weeks, but we'll take a break to start work on v3.0. We want to make v3 much more extendable, accessible, and complete.
We have a milestone up on GitHub with some features we're planning to bring in early 2023.
https://github.com/avo-hq/avo/milesto...
Avo v2 will still receive bug fixes and security upgrades for quite a while now, so don't worry; you won't have to upgrade to stay up to date with security issues. We'll have a nice upgrade path too.
