Cannot find changesets older than 2023-01-01

Brief Description

I found out an object I created before (1 to 3 years ago) is deleted and recreated by another user. Because of the subject of it, seems a vandalism to me, so I tried to check what happened to it.

I tried to use OSMCha to filter my changesets by date or comment, but only changesets until 2023-01-01 were available. link to filter my changesets - oldest changeset that is listed

I also tried out a filter on date only, from 2022-01-01 to 2022-12-31 and no changesets found.

Question

Is this normal or is it intended in OSMCha to ~provide~ list only recent changesets?

Please tell us about your environment:

Using another tool I found that changeset and OSMCha also loads this changeset but I didn't find it using filter in OSMCha.

The solution we found to decrease the costs while continuing to provide a good user experience was to only allow seeing changesets from Jan 1st, 2023. The older changesets weren’t deleted, but we need more financial resources to be able to have a database that allows users to query a larger amount of data.
