  • I was really confused at first because I didn’t know comment sorting had that many options. “Top 6 Hours” is only available for comments for me. Is it suppose to be available for posts as well?

    So, I changed BOTH post and comment sorting to New then both back to Hot, NOW the feeds are sorting by Hot on their own.

    Just to be clear, was there only comment sorting in the setting a before? It feels like the update took whatever the setting for comments and applied it to posts instead of using the existing state.


  • First thing I said in my post was that I set the app (in settings) to Hot.

    When it started behaving this way, I changed it to New then returned it to Hot just in case the setting didn’t stick somehow. Despite now saying the default sort is Hot, it is only sorted by Hot if I manually change the feed to Hot each and every time I return to it.

    Every time I open a feed or community, regardless of what I set it to in the past, it always reverts to Active.










  • The very last pass on a beta before it becomes final code is power usage optimization. Beta testers always complain about hot phones and dead batteries and then the update gets released and everything is fine. It’s possible there was something about the fix as-is that got flagged as unoptimized or bloating to the update so it got removed.

    Looking at the bug report, the developer who patched it doesn’t seem to be 100% sure it worked. So that could also be the reason it got excluded.

    I agree, it’s a little silly. Fingers crossed for 17.2.

    And thank you for making a bandaid in the mean time.
