It's a pain that search results on lemmy show by default ordered by some useless relevance ranking. I can't think of a single time I didn't want newest first. I couldn't find a preference to request that. It would be great if there was one.

The suggestion on c/support on lemmy.world was to make this kind of request on github, but it seems anti-FOSS to me to require a Microsoft account for a fediverse request, so I'm posting here and hoping for the best.

Thanks for any consideration!

My suggestion is if you’re not willing to get heavily involved in the process of re-hosting the code, then you should just go along with the system the lemmy devs have chosen, which includes github.

By posting the feature request here instead of github, you’re volunteering other people’s time to improve things.

Generally speaking, if you want to make the world a better place you should volunteer your own effort and resources, not other people’s.
