- mduvall 15y agoThe call to default _uuids API call generates random UUIds, however you could override the call in the _config to have a different algorithm field, one that potentially could call "utc_random" still while appending a timestamp in the string to sort by later. Was this thought about when CouchDB was potentially considered?
