01:17 PMQuick question, is there any way to use the vector_distance on the sort_by?
I was trying to shuffle a little bit the results so similar items are not so close to each other

01:31 PMFrom what I could see on Github, release are made every 2-3 month, so I will look for a client side workaround in the mean time
