Sadly, an API limitation. When fetching saved posts, you only have the same sorting options as when you fetch posts for a community or the main feed, and those are based on publish date.
Same reason you can't search your saved items:
saved_only
isn't a flag you can pass to the search endpoint :(I was about to reply the same thing lol API is pretty limiting with what can be done. Gotta get creative!
Ah, so it's not even possible with a different front-end (unless it stores extra data).
Basically, yeah. The app would have to basically fetch and store the posts and comments locally and search its own copy of them.
That's something ive been looking into since I'm also looking to provide offline support. Just not quite there yet lol.
