Sorting of osu! original songs on Featured Artist Listings

[mangomizer]

It would be desirable to have osu! original songs listed at the top of a Featured Artist listing rather than at the bottom, since they have the highest relevance to the game.

For some artists this is not a huge issue, however, there are artists who have osu! original songs that are buried at the very bottom such as this: https://osu.ppy.sh/beatmaps/artists/179

sounds good to me but what happens to originals within albums? if any exist

[mangomizer]

I didn't consider that but they do exist (example: https://osu.ppy.sh/beatmaps/artists/401). I think they already autosort to the top of their respective albums.

In that case, perhaps the "Songs" category could be split into "osu! original releases" (moved to the top) and "songs" (stay at the bottom)

I think just duplicating all the originals into their own section regardless of whether or not they're in an album is fine?

duplicating songs on the listing sounds weird. they're already very prominent with the pink tint and ORIGINAL marker, they're sorted to the top, we can filter originals on the track listing, and we have a wiki page listing them all

given the complication of originals existing inside albums, i don't think this proposal makes much sense to actually implement. is the point to just make them more visible for people who don't scroll to the bottom of the page?
