It looks like someone else brought it up in issue #1177 which is for adding sorting to column headers is being worked on (#1538). It appears there was a bug #3374 in the backend which needed to be fixed (#3376) which delayed progress on that.
I’m an older millennial who missed too much of the computer revolution so I find it hard to follow a lot of the vocab. Voyager shows my subscribed communities in alphabetical order, but when I use Lemmy on browser by signing into lemmy.dbzer0.com the list of communities (subscribed, local, and all) are not. It’s not clear how they are sorted. So you’re saying that the instance does something but has no control over the look of browsing Lemmy, i.e. all instances look the same in a browser. Just trying to make sure I’m understanding correctly. Thanks!
This has to be implemented in Lemmy UI. It would be better to suggest this as a GitHub issue. Maybe there is a suggestion like that already.

Yep. Improvements on the ui is not something I can help with

each UI handles the display in their own way. Lemmy UI displays communities sorted by subscriber count or activity I think.
