To be fair having replies in order of time sucks.
It would be best to let the users to choose their own preference.
You literally can. It's a setting.
Does it save the setting?
Yes. And furthermore, if you've changed the setting in the past, this new default sort change doesn't override it.
Good
You can though I like it.
I prefer how X orders them based on how much money you give to Elon Musk
Weird you're being voted down.
Who wants the terminally online to be the first five replies to every post? It should sort by op like/boost by default at least
Me. I do. It’s better than the hive mind upvoting some stupid meme reply or some bullshit/misinformation.
So you only see misinformation if professional disinformation employees are paid to reply instantly, which, they are.
I’m not seeing too many professional disinformation employees in here but sure that’s a thing.
Why do you think that sucks? Chronological order makes everything easier to use and navigate
