Is there anything in the pipeline that will enable sorting the communities in the Community list by the columns they have listed there?

    I think the communities are sorted by the number of subscribers.

    It’s definitely not a strict sort by subscriber count. The top-5 communities in order from 1 to 5 have: 2491, 4461, 1414, 1138, 7109. It is sort of roughly ordered by some measure of popularity, but not one I can follow, the second entry is more popular than the first in every metric shown.

    Don’t get me wrong, it’s a super useful service and one I use and recommend. But I was wishing for more sortability when I was setting up my subscriptions the other day, and if the number of communities grows that will be even more useful.

      Strange, when I made my reply and checked the website, at least the first 7 communities were sorted by subscribers. After refreshing the page now, the sorting is all over the place.

      And yes, it would really be nice to be able sort the communities by various conditions. At least the search function is quick and shows instant results, which is really nice.
