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 you are searching for something like this: https://browse.feddit.de/
I’m familiar with that, does it have the sorting options that OP and I are discussing? It looks to me like the sort order is both hard-coded and confusing, although less-popular communities do seem to be at the bottom… I can’t identify any specific order that entries are listed in.
I do not think that you can change the sorting order, but I think the communities are sorted by the number of subscribers. So it at least should be close to what you were searching to find the most popular communities. Not the perfect solution, but maybe it helps anyway.
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.
