Are there plans to make a influxdb3 plugin variant? The FLUX api in influxdb2 is being replaced.

working through setting up influxdb2 and realized how different FLUX is from the what I'm used to.. then went reading the docs and it looks like they are changing again to normal sql syntax for influxdb 3. curious if we have any thoughts and plans on this? @Teppo Kurki ?

Flux is in maintenance mode meaning it will not be supported for v3. You should use influxql so your queries are forwards compatible

What tony said, and influxql is surprising a lot more performant on v2 than flux I have no plans for influx v3 as don’t want to invest in a platform whose future can change so dramatically

I didn't realize I could use influxsql on the v2 server. . that should make grafana a lot easier to use.. let me try that! seems there's an environment variable option
