What kind of consistency models [0] do Offline-first databases like RxDB and PouchDB have?

I was thinking read uncommitted, but they might allow dirty writes. Maybe there’s some CRDTs under the hood… I can’t find any documentation on consistency though, anyone here know?

CouchDB docs have you covered: https://docs.couchdb.org/en/stable/replication/intro.html

Thanks! Very cool. I haven’t used couchdb in prod. I’ll read into this more.

Is the reason for all of these sorts of comments some sort of "never lose data" quality assurance?

There's consistency, write first, latency, replication, and then acronyms.

I just implement hardware and OS stuff, but I like the DB people to be happy. What am I missing?
