Multi-day date filter in sessions

[macobo]

Is your feature request related to a problem?

Currently in sessions you need to select a date to filter by. This can be annoying if searching for a specific session (via filtering)

Describe the solution you'd like

Have a dropdown instead, with the default being "Last 30 days".

Describe alternatives you've considered

Additional context

The original reason for this limitation was performance - implementing this should also involve checking whether it continues working in all conditions.

Thank you for your feature request – we love each and every one!

+1 on this! This is my single biggest pain point too when watching session recordings. Using our default timeframe dropdown should be the best approach here as you mention. Related but not part of this issue, we do need to improve the UX of that filter (as detailed in the relevant issue).

Some context on this:

This has two distinct components:

1. Performance - current implementation of this will fail on larger clickhouse and postgres teams due to the amount of data processed. Optimizing this is also tricky, multi-day work at minimum.
2. Design - we need a proper multi-day search filter (dropdown) designed. cc @clarkus

Given that the solutions arrived at #4884 simplify the logic a lot making the performance issues go away, I'd suggest not working on this until then but bundling this into that project.

Based on the resolution for #4884 (PostHog/posthog.com#2028), we can now close this.
