Saved posts should be sorted by the date they were saved, not the date the post was made.

Is Your Feature Request Related to a Problem?

Currently saved posts are sorted by the date the post was created rather than the date that posts were sorted. So sorting by new will put the most recently created posts on top, regardless of whether they were the most recently saved.

Feature Description

I think the saved posts should be sorted by the save date rather than the creation date. So the most recently saved posts will be on top.

I'm not sure if this would be better suited to a backend change on Lemmy's part.

Thanks for the request! This is something I've been wanting too!

I believe, as you mentioned, this would require a Lemmy backend change, as there doesn't appear to be any info regarding when the post/comment was saved by the user (only that it was or wasn't saved). The backend would need to store additional metadata regarding when it was saved. I thought I had seen an issue about this, either here or in the Lemmy repo, but I couldn't find anything after a quick search. Maybe someone else remembers!

I'll check the Lemmy server repo, and if an issue doesn't exist I'll open one there. I've already opened one in the Lemmy-UI repo.
