Option to sort rooms by last active / unread
Describe the problem
It's hard to see which rooms have unread messages when you have a big space with lots of rooms, most of which are low traffic.
Describe the solution you'd like
A way to show rooms ordered by the time of last message, or maybe just a way to show unread rooms at the top of the list.

Kind of, yes, but then you don't see the full list of rooms, so you have to collapse the category, look through unread rooms, then uncollapse it every time, which is also not very convenient, especially when there's a bunch of subspaces in the space.
Seconding this. Currently there's no way to sort the rooms when expanded in any deterministic way, and they're stuck in the order I joined them.
I also would like to have most an option to get most recent chats listed at the top, or to list them in alphabetical order. This is for instance useful for signal bridged rooms, because right now they end up in one space in the order I joined them. With many rooms, having no sort option is not perfect.

I would love this as well!
there was some discussion similar to this in #54 and #585, maybe instead of having each type of list (DMs, spaces, other rooms without space) behaving differently, it could be unified and in each list have a dropdown menu to select how to sort them
We really need that and the option to close the rooms list to see unread ones is not satisfying at all as I often need to go back to some rooms, I use matrix at my work and I need to use element because of this, we have a lot of rooms, some old rooms, and I also use it for my personal and all of that leads to more than 200 rooms so yes, cinny is not usable for me which is sad since it's cleaner than element
even discord, whatsapp, telegram, they sort rooms by activity (except in discord servers which is up to admin will)
I don't think #585 should have been closed as it doesn't answer this completely
