I've been using InfluxDB, but not satisifed with limited InfluxQL, or over-complicated Flux query languages. I love Postgres so TimescaleDB looks awesome.

The main issue I've got is how to actually get data into TimescaleDB. We use telegraf right now, but the telegraf Postgres output pull request still hasn't been merged: https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/pull/3428

Any progress on this?

There is a telegraf binary available here that connects to TimescaleDB: https://docs.timescale.com/latest/tutorials/telegraf-output-...

If you are looking to migrate data, then you might also want to explore this tool: https://www.outfluxdata.com/

I believe PromQL [1] and MetricsQL [2] are much better suited for typical queries over time series data than SQL, Flux or InfluxQL.
