This is not a question, just a short rant about something I find annoying
In Lightroom Cloudy, in the All Photos grid view, if you click on "By Date", you will see the years expand in DESCENDING order. But if you click on a year to expand it, you will get the months of the year in ASCENDING order. I find this counter-intuitive. (I don't think there any way to change this behaviour?)
I also find it annoying that individual dates are shown in the format "Saturday, Mar 2". When looking at days for a given month, surely the most important piece of information is the date, not the day of the week, so "02 March (Saturday)" or something similar would make it much easier to scan down the list.
In Lighroom Classic things are implemented much better. Open up the Library Metadata filter. Choose "Date" for the first column, and years and months will be arranged in the same order (either ascending or descending, depending on the user's choice). Much better. And individual days are shown in the format "2 - Saturday". Logical and easy to read. I don't know why the Cloudy app has chosen to arrange things differently.
