Hello After receiving feedback raising up speed issues on RecentChanges pages using the new filters, we are postponing the release of those filters until *October 3* minimum.
Some features are under improvement, especially the ones about speed <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T176250>. I'll send you an update when the new release schedule will be ready. Until then, please share this announcement with your communities. Please ping me if you have questions!
