Hey All,

When you don’t know exactly what you want to install and are searching for a tool by it’s category/function, you can sort by ‘Best Match’ (I’m assuming via metadata tags) or Alphabetically (ascending/descending).

Would it be possible to sort by popularity or installs?

The latter I imagine may have some privacy issues, but wouldn’t it be theoretically possible to tally how often the tools are fetched anonymously on the back-end?

If so, how would one best go about requesting such a feature?
