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!

You can just create a throwaway account for GitHub

I know I'm getting off-topic, but the last time I tried this it ended up being locked either because it didn't like a simplelogin email or because I didn't give it a phone number. Hopefully that was an edge case but I haven't tried again recently.
