- Why remove this? Who made a ticket saying "Remove sort by upload date"? This isn't something that happens on a whim. What is the benefit to YouTube?

- The `sp` URL parameter for sorting by upload date still works, so I've added an option to restore the Upload date filter to Control Panel for YouTube:

- Am I crazy or is "sort by (upload) date" or "sort by most recent" by far the most useful option on most sites that you want to use more than once? (If not the only useful option).
- sorting by upload date was the only way to get exact matches in your results, no recommendations, no recent, no relevant, no similar.
Basically means no more actual search
- Let me guess, they're seeing less "engagement" with AI slop since people were using this to filter them out so they removed it?
- Its still there for me, HK IP.
- Youtube has been getting worse and worse since the new CEO
