This is also happening to me on 0.0.36.

If I clear storage and cache and log back in, it will work as usual as long as I don't close the app.

If I close the app and come back though, then it goes my defaults and will not change from them. If I choose "Hot", I might see the change for a second until I try to scroll, in which case it goes back to "Active".

It seems to be only doing what I've set as the default, if I try and sort some other way it just pretends to try and then does my default setting...

I believe it's this issue for 0.0.36, where it will always use your account's preferences: https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/issues/887

It looks like a temporary fix is already done, so it should be fixed when they make a new release (0.0.37). As a quick fix for 0.0.36, it looks like if you change your account's preferences, quit the app and reopen, it'll use those new settings (but that's definitely a pain), you could also use the web version.

I'm having the same issue. I've downloaded connect in the meantime to browse but prefer jerboa overall. Hopefully it's fixed soon

Are you on v. 0.0.36? It should be fixed by now
