I need to click next multiple times to get to my upcoming.
Suggest that this list should be reverse chronological — with events that are newest next.
Sorting by “created” reverse chronological might be appropriate too (rather than event date).
I wouldn’t over rotate on this because different ways to display should be possible — eg this is classically called “agenda mode”, a visual calendar by month / week / day is appropriate in other contexts.
They are. I did a site-wide import of everything from repositories and it reset the “updated” timestamp and mangled the order of displayed events. It’ll even-out as people are regularly active on the site going forward.
Yeah, it should be based on the event “starts at” date. The issue is that events that are planning, postponed, or cancelled may not have that date set.
With event feeds, I think the “sane default” would be events that are schedule ordered by when they start. That’d show a nice “upcoming events” view. Then a separate view would be all events ordered by when they were last updated by the event organizer.
Yeah I would expect upcoming events to be the default as you describe, minus undated events.
Activity / Last Updated I can see a use case for but … as an organizer I don’t really want to necessarily have edits visible in the UI (of course an API / atproto feature).
As an organizer, I would want a pref on whether or not to show dates with other status in main upcoming (default to show all).
“Might not have a date” is definitely a thing but is kind of a whole other use case that for me personally would be low on the priority list to show at all — eg show undated events pref, default to no.
(And actually gives me a way to draft things - nice!)
