Is it possible to add a post sorting feature?

[Yakumo-Yukari]

For example, options to sort posts by Latest Published, Latest Replies, Hot, or Featured.

Right now, posts are sorted by latest activity, which is a mix of Latest Published and Latest Replies.
The easiest additional option we can add at the moment is Latest Published. Do we actually have a strong need for this?

As for Hot or Featured, do you have any ideas or expectations about how they should work? For example:
• Hot could be based on recent reply counts, view counts, or weighted engagement.
• Featured could be manually curated, or automatically highlighted based on certain criteria.

I’d love to hear how you imagine these two behaving.
