YouTube has updated its desktop site so it now remembers how users sort videos on a channel. The change means the platform will keep the sorting option a user selected instead of resetting it when they return to the page.
When people open the Videos or Shorts tab on a channel, they can sort content in three ways: Latest, Popular, or Oldest. “Latest” shows the newest uploads first. “Oldest” lists the earliest videos first. “Popular” arranges videos based on the number of views, with the most viewed videos at the top.
Before the update, YouTube always returned to the Latest option on desktop. This caused a small issue for users who preferred another order. For example, if someone sorted videos by Popular, watched a video, and then went back to the channel page, the sorting would reset to Latest again.
The change was spotted by tech journalist Artem Russakovskii. With the update, YouTube now remembers the sorting option a user picked earlier. When the user returns to the channel page, the videos stay arranged in the same order they selected.
The update fixes a long-time user interface issue that some viewers found inconvenient when browsing a creator’s content.
