By default, the Home Feed is sorted by Recent. This means posts are ordered based on the most recent activity, such as new posts, comments, reactions, etc.
You can change the default Home Feed sort to control how posts are organized for both you and your members when they first visit the Home Feed.
Members can still choose a different sorting option from their own account if they prefer.
