Hi Bruno I’m sorry to hear of your experience; like most of us I know how frustrating it is to lose your own work.
That’s why tiddlywiki.com does go to some trouble to highlight the “First rule of using TiddlyWiki”, to take cautious backups and guard against data loss. As much as possible, we try to learn from feedback so that we can engineer improvements to the product to reduce the likelihood of data loss. But ultimately data security requires attention from the user; TiddlyWiki gives enough power to shoot oneself in the foot very easily. Can you shed any light on what went wrong for you? It would be great to understand any underlying issues so that we can attempt to address them.
