Appview: apply epoch for indexed-at times in views #2943

Closed devinivy closed 3 weeks ago

This allows the appview to be configured with an epoch after which record indexed-at times are always presented as the time the appview first observed the record. That is as opposed to using the appview's hybrid sorted-at time which factors in the untrusted created-at time per https://docs.bsky.app/docs/advanced-guides/timestamps#sortat.

Is this more of an anti-election-misinfo hotfix or is this an intended medium/long-term solution?
