When searching in notes, and many entries exist, Joplin sorted these entries in a predefined order: What Joplin thinks is most imortant comes first.
But for me it would be very helpful to sort myself the search result. - In many cases I want to have the newest entries at first.
This would help finding the needed entry much faster.
You can use the created and updated qualifiers in search, as documented here:
For example:
created:day-2created in the past two days.updated:year-0searches all notes updated in the current year.
