no way to sort by name of subreddit in reddit for blind? (self.Blind)
submitted by ke7zum
So I can't get the grave accent to work in the sorting of subs. I thought it was grave accent anyway. I did read the documentation however it does not indicate whether I can sort by name of sub or not. If not, and if the developers are following r/blind, can they investigate this as an option in settings? That would be nice.
thanks so much guys and have a blessed day.

the sort key is actually ' which is just left of the enter key on most keyboards. not sure why they have it listed as ` in the documentation.

Different countries' keyboard layouts swap the positions of certain keys.

Odd? is that a typographical error? Yes, I did not want to say typo, I am showing off a bit. lol! I'll take a look at this again and see what I come up with. I hope this is not an id10t error.
update: I just tried this on the subs page and no sort option came up. so, looks like this has to be an option in settings. if not, can this be added? I can't code to save my life. lol! Or I would help out.

The apostrophe key works for me.

How odd. I hit that and cannot sort my subs by new, but I can sort the stuff inside each by new, hot, etc. something is broken here, and this is on a fresh install of RFB too.

It's designed that way.

I use rif reddit is fun. There is a bunch of subreddits that I did not subscribe to, maybe I just looked at it once and it went there. They seem to be in alphabetical order. On my tablet I clicked on a box to the left, it's a star on my phone, and it put the ones I click on best the top of the sub list in alphabetical order so I don't have to scroll down through the list. I see no other way to sort.

Doesn't seem to be a feature in the client as of yet. however, pressing r then a letter, then tabbing, will give you your subs first.

Ok, scratch that. It kind of works but it kind of does not. I was seing things that were not in my feed. something about twitter, and other things I was not subscribed to, so I will be contacting them and writing up a case as to why this could be looked into at some point.

I just tried this, no go. I hit b but all I see is another one, I cannot arrow down to the other subs that have the letter b in them for example. so looks like this for now will not work.

Hmm, I'll give that a try. If i hit r though it seems to sort by some unknown pattern I can't yet figure out. Will keep you updated.

There’s luna I think.
ke7zum [OP] 1 points 1y ago
Yes that will let you sort, however there are other issues such as the slowness. I do love the fact I can turn off the sound skeme though in that program. I also love the fact it wil support markdown.

Hmm. Interesting. Yeah, sounds cool in some ways for sure but yeah.
