(possible bug) Posts are filtered by Active when I rotate my phone (lemmy.world)

I have been trying to figure out for a while now why the hell posts would keep getting filtered by Active when I keep setting them to be filtered by Hot. Well, today I think I figured it out. I noticed that I put my phone down for a second, and after picking it up, the posts I had been reading through had completely changed,and they were filtered by Active. I filtered by Hot, rotated my phone, and lo and behold, they filtered by Active again.

Can this be fixed? Also, is it possible to implement default sorting in the settings? Thanks!

Will fix in the next release.

Also, is it possible to implement default sorting in the settings?

This is not only implemented, but it's implemented twice!

To change the global feed default sort order go to Settings > Posts feed > Default posts sort order. To change the defualt sort order for a specific feed tap the three dots button (bottom right) > Change settings for this community > Sort by > Choose a desired sort order.

Thank you for your reply and for pointing out where I could find the default sorting. It was set to "default". When I get it to "Hot", rotating my phone no longer changed the sorting of my posts.
