Are you using Lemmy on p.lemmy.world? If so, that's because they have SSR enabled and I can't physically fix this without either having users trust me with their credentials, or having some access to the database.

Yes, I am on p.lemmy.world. Maybe you could use localStorage for things like sorting settings and dark/light theme?

Xyphyn commented 3 months ago

localStorage is local, meaning the server cannot access it when it fetches posts initially.

Oh I see, you're right. I'm closing this.
