 All notable changes to Epicure are documented here. This file is mirrored in-app at `/changelog` (and in the admin dashboard) via `apps/web/lib/changelog.ts` — update both together.
 
+## 0.44.1 — 2026-07-17 17:00
+
+### Fixed
+- Every recipe page was broken (server error) since 0.41.0 — the new followers-visibility check referenced the user_follows table incorrectly inside a query the ORM rewrites in a way that silently produces invalid SQL for cross-table references. Fixed by using a literal table reference instead.
