Library sorting parameters inconsistently applied on page load

[awused]

Description:

Sorting parameters for libraries are not consistently applied on page load or refresh.

I've seen two major problems:

1- For both anime and manga the direction url parameter ("direction=asc") is never respected. Sorting on page load is always in descending order.

2- For manga, but not anime, some sorting options aren't applied on page load. Attempting to sort by length, title, or date updated will not persist after a refresh.

Steps to reproduce:

Go to your library Sort your manga by title, ascending or descending Refresh the page Observe that the list is now using the default order

Sorting anime by length ascending will result in anime sorted by length descending

1. I do not see how to activate that query parameter ("direction=asc"). Has that been removed?

2. On my end, those sorting parameters are respected on page refreshes
