Sorting by "Ending Soon" does a disservice to those drops that are new, but are for shorter than the longest drops. They end up in the middle of the page. They may be new today, but they are still buried. You still force us to go all the way to the end of the infinite scroll and load every single drop before scrolling back through and confirming that anything new has shown up from the previous day, for example. Price and age are two sorts that every good sales UI uses. I reached out to you guys three months ago to tell you I'd buy more stuff if the site had better sorting - it's an oppressive UI.
I also agree there should be a bookmark/favorite/star/wish list feature.

We're also thinking about how we can organize more complex sorting/filtering behavior that accommodates our diverse range of products.

JasperJasper, Thanks for your attention to this. I normally skip "Newest" and "Active" when it comes to My Communities, as it needlessly loads drops that I could never get and probably already knew about (the Recent Drops). I appreciate that these historic drops are available to view, and do review them occasionally, but as a daily browser, it does me little good most times. "Active" also just randomly distributes drops, on the page.
So we're back to "Ending Soon". This is where I feel I can actually sort at all, and ensure I'm not missing a drop. But dealing with the infinity scroll on this view is uncomfortable, for the type of information that is represented. Again, I suggest ditching this for those members who opt-out, or maybe who buy a certain amount, and thus can justify the larger single requests to your servers. Just spit-balling here.
I understand that you probably want us to look at all the drops, regardless of our preference for price range or ending date. I'd like to look at all the drops, too. Please help us do that in a way that is easier on the user.

T_GoodI would like to understand the issue with the "Newest" sort -- as implemented, this shows the most recently launched drops first. I would assume that this sort would allow you (as a daily browser) to see the newest drops right at the top of the listing, and would ensure that you're not missing a drop. Maybe I'm misunderstanding?

JasperTo be fair, I haven't tried this in a while. So I can give it a few days' test drive and see if it is an improvement from my previous experience. But in the past, the order was not at all consistent. Sometimes that EZGO Wallet that is now the latest drop would show up in the first page of scrolling, and sometimes it would be a page (a few rows) down. Perhaps that's been ironed out here, and I'm not giving you folks enough credit :-)
Any comment on a sort by price option? Thanks again for taking the time to reply, and working with the community.
