Can I once again see newest comments by default, even when they are sorted Oldest first?

I prefer to see the comments of an issue in chronological order, so I have them sorted "Oldest first".

Up until a few days or a week ago, that meant that I first saw

and then the N newest comments (N = 5?) ordered from old to new. I had no problem with that.

Now suddenly I see the N oldest comments followed by a "View [M] remaining newer comments" button.

Is this change intentional? Can I do something to get back the previous behaviour?

Hi @Paul Verburg welcome to the community.  As I can recreate the same behavior on my instance, I would say that the functionality is intentional.

I took a quick look at Atlassian's Jira site and didn't find anything specific to this change. I fiddled around, and couldn't figure out a way to change the behavior as well.  You could ask Atlassian Support if they have a JIRA ticket for that behavior, and if there's a way to put it back.

Hope that helps.

Hi @Dan Breyen 

Thanks for your pointer how to deal with this kind of question. I had already searched for an existing ticket for this issue and I couldn't find any.

Today it seems that Jira has reverted to the correct (IMO) behaviour. For me at least. So unless it changes again, I'll leave it at that. But thanks again for your response.
