codex Remember browse-by and sort-by settings across logins

I generally always want to browse by filesystem layout and sort by filename, but it looks like this setting is only sticky for a given session, so I have to adjust it every time I log in.

I'm having trouble reproducing this on v0.10.1 I do know it's been an issue in the past. Maybe it was fixed? Maybe not?

This was happening in 0.9.x but seems to be fixed in 0.10.x, thanks!

After further testing, it remembers that the top group was set to Folder View, but not that the order by was set to Filename; the latter keeps reverting to Name.

I'm having trouble replicating this. I can set my top group and order by to Folder View and Filename, close my browser completely. Open the browser to the root url and it recalls that I want Folder View and Filename. Could you provide more detailed replication steps?

I can't replicate it anymore either. ¯_(ツ)_/¯ We can mark this fixed and I'll reopen it if it (a) happens again and (b) I can actually get it to happen reliably.

Ok, I've got a repro now in 0.14:

browse to the root of your codex server. It will redirect to /p/0/1, in browse by publisher mode.
select browse by folder. The URL will change to /f/0/1.
go back to /. It will redirect you to /p/0/1, putting you back in publisher browsing.

So, this isn't an issue for any given session, but it means that at the start of every session it'll drop you into browse-by-publisher no matter what mode you were previously in.

Current workaround for this is bookmarking /f/0/1. I'll look into remembering folder view as the default view.
