Description Aadniz 2022-01-24 04:24:53 UTC 
I've been using spotify for years, and when playing music I usually always sort by time added.
Lately, I've been looking for something more local and I think Elisa is a pretty good application.

The only thing that I feel is missing, is to be able to sort by file creation date (date when it was saved to disk).
In "Files", you can only sort by A-Z, and in "Tracks" there is no option for this either.

Can you explain the use case for this? Wouldn't the order look pretty random in the app?

I suppose many people like to listen to the music they last added, and having the ability to sort makes it much better when starting a playlist queue.
I find myself having to go into the music directory, sort by file created/added, and then manually add them to playlist queue from newest to old. Why isn't this just included in the sort dropdown?

Perhaps a better solution would be a "Recently Added" view in Elisa, to complement the "Recently played" and "Frequently played" views. What do you think?

Oh yes, that would work too

Cool, let's do that.
