Making a list of upcoming movies really shows this. I made said list, sorted by release date, and it showed me the movies coming out on December first, not January. I know you can change the direction, but that’s temporary.
The default URL says ascending too, which is just not right. Ascending order would be least amount of days away to most.
Works now. Changing the default to descending wasn’t working at first when I was refreshing the list page but it was fine when I clicked on the list from outside.
