What is up with the default comment sorting?

It seems like there is no order to it, and there doesn't appear to be any way to change it? I would like to sort by "top"

There are some icons at the top of the page and the second from the right lets you select new/active/top:

Edit: it doesn't remember the order to set the default, but there are options for that in the settings.

The setting you linked shows the sorting for posts, but not for comments, correct? I was specifically talking about comments

Oh, I see, sorry.

They're talking about comments in a post, not the overall post list.

There are sort options on the top of the comment thread. Is that what you mean? options

I believe that is missing from Jerboa

Yeah, I see those options on the web app, but I don't see them on Jerboa. Am I missing something?

There was a pull request for comment sorting in jerboa and it is released in the next update.

Nice. The releases have been pretty quick, any idea when this one will come?

Dev knows about it and I think he said it's coming in the next release.

It seems like these options don't exist in Jerboa yet.

draft - is kbin working on options like this? i only see "hot/active/newest/oldest/" but no "top" option

also, would it be possible for the jerboa developers to add kbin support?
