The search results come back in some unknown order.

I would like to at least view the results in new or old date and time order.

I believe that the lemmy web interface allows that in some fashion.

I have an icon in the top-right corner for sorting searches. I'm not sure if it changes depending on theme, but mine is a chalice, or wine glass with handles, I guess. There's also a filter icon (globe) if you're searching in Communities.

Ah, so there it is! Thank you!

After getting my search results, selecting the new sort order, I did have to refresh the search by doing pulling down gesture in order to get the results in the new sort order.
