Hey jabo,

I migrated in April 2021 (latest version of typesense & meilisearch at that time).

I don't have a public dataset has it was a fairly large ecommerce catalog with close to ~500k entries. And again, it was just my own perception which is hard to define. I just found that Typesense was a bit off compared to Meilisearch on search accuracy, and of course could totally be different today with a more recent release.

Got it, thank you for sharing that. Typesense was at v0.19.0 around that time. Two prominent issues we had in that version were how we handled matches across multiple fields and how we handled "keyword stuffing".

We're now at v0.24.rc, and we've iterated quite a lot on improving relevancy since then, as more users shared their datasets with us and gave us feedback over the last 1.5 years.

If you get a chance to try out Typesense again in the future, I'd love to hear how relevance feels with the latest version, out of the box for your dataset.
