Sort repls by stats

Sorting

Add a sorting feature like github to sort as

  • per runs [ community ]
  • storage space [ repls ]
  • forks
  • likes

etc

something like the Status option has

that would require a complete list of all of your repls, which would be inefficient for people with tons of repls and incompatible with the current API, as the replit API returns a list of the first x (idk what x is) repls instead of dumping the entire list of repls in the payload.

That’s the point of feature requests, the system probably wouldn’t support this now, so the request would involve improving the system so that it did.

Sorting would be a great idea, I think more easy ways of organising repls like this should be implemented on the ‘My Repls’ page.

“Improving” the system to return all Repls instead of one page at a time sounds inefficient and not as much an “improvement”.

there is a reason why almost every API out there only returns a limit of x items in their payload. Adding a way to bypass this could lead to DDOs, as an account with a lot of repls (such as the @replit account or any account with 100DoC) could overload the server, the network, and/or the client

Improving the system to support sorting is a reasonable request. I understand why the system is the way it is, returning the first x is very normal, but it could still be improved to enable sorting regardless. The suggestion was not to change this.

I’m running out of storage and really need to be able to sort repls by weight… I’m a Computer Science teacher and I had a lot of different examples for students for about 5 years… Thanks!

you can see it under Storage in your account page: replit.com/account
It will only show your top 10 (I think it’s ten) most storage-consuming repls, the rest will be hidden as “Other repls” or something of the sorts.

Just tested, it shows the top 8.

So it already does sort, why not add more categories?

True, I have a lot of repls and I want the whole list, but I can’t see it

you could use gql to make something of the likes.

Oh, yeah, that’s actually a good idea. Some people need to find a popular Repl in their list quickly but can’t remember the name. This would help for sure.
