I too would like to do the same. Perhaps either of the two may work:

1. A new command line option like --initial-match=first,last, where first is the current default.

2. A new action, similar to change and backward-eof, named on-load that executes whenever the finder reloads data. This way, I could do: --bind=on-load:last or --bind=on-load:first.

Any way to do this right now @junegunn ?

Using --tac

seq 10 | fzf --tac --layout=reverse --height=~50%
seq 10 | fzf --tac --layout=reverse-list --height=~50%
