a little more obvious hint would be nice. I am using this for a while and the app could remember a bit better.

The data on anonymous mode and a login users are stored differently and independent from each other. Could you use anonymous mode (at the bottom of the login page), and see if you see the data again?

data gone in anon mode as well. But i dont know if that is because i re-imported the data to the cloud one now.

@sebs , deleting the anonymous mode data folder will empty your anon mode workspace.
Since you have found your old data and recovered (imported) it successfully, I'll close this issue for now. Feel free to reopen if you need further assistance.
