MySQL:Jeg skal vise fra 1 til maksimalt n indlæg fra hver bruger pr. dag

Prøv denne forfærdelige SQL-kode :)

select post_id, user_id, post_datetime, post_text from (
  select posts.*,
    if (user_id = @prev_user and date(post_datetime) = date(@prev_day),
      @row := @row + 1, @row := 1) idx,
    @prev_user := user_id,
    @prev_day := post_datetime
  from posts, (select @row := 1, @prev_user := null, @prev_day := null) init
  order by date(post_datetime), user_id, post_datetime desc
) s
where s.idx <= 2
 

Resultat:
