Not sure if it's possible with instances too, or just communities, but it'd be useful to be able to sort the Lemmy Explorer list by creation date.

Having widdled down my unblocked community count to just below 1,000, I can tell when there's new communities for me to review for keeping or blocking by the community count, but would find an option to sort by date founded useful for speeding up the process of finding new ones.

Another use case would be to have an easy means of finding recently-established communities to support and promote across Lemmy.

I'm not sure I've seen anyone that uses Lemmy Explorer as intensively as you do, so all your feedback has been great. I can definitely add a sort by date feature, as I believe that is included in the API. I'll skim through the api and see if there are any other filters I can include in addition to this while I'm at it.

Hopefully filters similar to those available for the "Browse federated communities" tab would be possible; thanks for all the improvements to Lemmy Explorer!
