Pending A new sort button

I think if would be awesome if there could be a new sort button that allowed you to sort in reverse order, from where you left off when you were last browsing Poal. That way you would come forward in time instead of going backwards. I really like to see as many posts as I can so that when I want to post stuff I am not re-posting stuff that was posted a few hours ago. If I could just pick up where I left off this morning before work I could scroll to the latest post and be all caught up. Also I like to up-vote people for good content and it is nice (IMO) to up-vote the original posts on stories. Not the guy who doesn't actually use Poal and doesn't realize that the three articles he posted today were already posted a couple times just an hour ago. (Not literally today, but I see this scenario frequently)

Ok done it both server and client side.

I will use a script to test which way will end up being the one.

Advantage of the server side version is that you can go from one device to another and continue where you left off.

I also need to think about how to implement it. Either users will have to manually click a bookmark on a specific post (like you mentioned) or automatically bookmark the last visited post.

That's awesome!! Last viewed post was my initial thought but I didn't know if that was possible.

It is possible, but should be automated then, because I'm pretty sure most users will forget to bookmark their posts.
