Agreed, the bezel was too big! I had a time steel as well, but it had a huge bezel too. I'm partial to the round designs anyway and let's hope the technology has improved so much that the bezel can be removed completely

It's a shame the v3 OSS version is simply not a functional alternative to InfluxDB v1 and v2. I understand money needs to be made, but not even being able to query further than 72 hours in the past... But seeing the changes from v1 to
