Is there any way to sort comments?

Right now it sorts in a seemingly random order. Any way to sort comments by "top"?

When viewing a post, tap the three lines on the top right. That opens a menu for a variety of sorting options.

Is it possible to make default the one I choose?

Surprisingly, on account settings you can't do it. Liftoff app has this feature in app settings on client level. That's one of the reasons why I switched to Liftoff. Jerboa should definitely have it too!

There's a fix for this currently open, so should be on the way soon.

Also, any way to hide child comments?

Not sure if you are serious. In case you are:

Hide a comment (or a child comment and all children) by tapping the child (avoiding any links if there are ones in the body).

I meant by default.

On RIF is fun for instance, I had it setup so that child comments would only appear when I clicked on them.
