Sort rooms/DM per activity about cinny HOT 8 CLOSED

There's one issue with this approach that when there's a lot of activity the top rooms will keep reordering constantly.

I have to scroll a LOT in direct messages

A kind of work around I found is by creating a private space, pin it, then add important DMs there.

Would it be an appropriate solution to sort DMs by recency and rooms/spaces by alphabetical? This is currently the implementation used by Discord, which I think works well and feels pretty natural.

This currently is my main issue with Cinny : I have to scroll a LOT in direct messages to discuss with my girlfriend :'(

Discord doesn't sort their channels by alphabetical, the server owners can dictate the channel ordering, and the user can dictate their sidebar server ordering.

The only ordering in discord that's automatic is the DMs, which are by activity, yes.

Hi again, sorry to dig this one up. First of all, thanks a lot for making this work for DMs, works like a charm. I also agree that within a space it's up to the space admins to choose how should rooms be organized.

However, I personnally also have lots of group discussions that are not part of any space (shown in the "Home" tab), which in my case are really akin to DMs, but with more than 2 persons involved at a time. Having an alphabetical order for such discussions feels really not adapted, as I have to sometimes scroll a very long list to reach a specific room I am interested in. Sorting these rooms by activity would, I feel, make much more sense. WDYT?

I can of course open another issue if that is preferred.

I've opened a new issue here: #585
