Hi @[email protected],

(I don't know if posting here is the most useful way to bring this to you. Let me know if you prefer suggestions to be sent some other way.)

I was browsing communities and it took me a while to find the New sorting option. I know where the menu is, but the New option wasn't there. It was only after I clicked a few different options that I realised New wasn't shown because it was already selected. I could have probably told from the icon, but in trying so many Lemmy apps recently, I haven't yet learned what icon means what.

My suggestion is that the current sorting is shown in the drop-down menu, perhaps as a checked option.

Thanks again for your work on this app! I'm really enjoying using it since I found it.

Hi! Leaving feedback here is nice so that everyone can see what's been suggested etc, might switch to some kind of issue tracker later on if it gets chaotic, but works well for now!

Good suggestion, I agree that icons can be a bit confusing since every app uses different ones for all kinds of stuff. I'll throw this in with the next build!
