On your front-page in the drop down there is a sorting option titled "Active" does this not do what you want?

That sorts the feed. Iβm trying to sort the list of community subscriptions.
Do you not have the Subscribed/Local/All selections next to the sort order?
Yes, but Iβm trying to sort the communities in my subscription list, not the posts available when I log in.
Ah, so ONLY the communities themselves... got ya, not currently possible. A few third party apps make it easier to see the users online and amount of posts at a glance. Seems like hitting subscribed in your community list and scrolling to the bottom would give you a pretty good idea though.
This may be the best possible measure right now. Iβm just trying not to have 400 subs, 3/4 of which are silent and dead, like That Other Place.
Thanks for your help figuring it out.
When you select Subscribed it is your subscription list...
I think they want that for the communities tab. In other words, not to see posts sorted by active, but communities sorted by average monthly users or something. Not sure how to do it though.
For my instance I can tap "Subscribed" and whatever the sort order is applies to my subscribed communities.
There is no such a option as of right now. This also has more to do with the software itself (Lemmy) than lemmy.world. I suggest to visit their GitHub: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy
Also, maybe some third-party developers can add this. In that case, you can ask the developer of your favourite app!
I do not believe this is a current option although would be helpful if it was.
It really would. Perhaps itβs on the roadmap.
